Norgdom

Wednesday of last week saw the inaugural Dinner 2.0 for Perth. It was not as Grum suggested our second course of dinner for the night or even a salad with ajax on the side, but rather a get together for those of us involved in web 2.0 here in Perth.

There were 10 of us who attended and probably there are a few others who we may not be aware of, who are always welcome to come along next time. We plan on making it a regular event.

I took some blurry photos of the event, but the lighting was not that great. It had nothing to do with me drinking too much as I stuck to the light beer on offer at The Belgian Beer Café and was gob smacked with it’s $15 price tag (for that beer) at the end of the night. Next time I’ll stick to the more alcoholic stuff.

We had a huge mix of attendees, which just goes to show how creative and diverse a bunch we are.

Scouta, Buzka, in8vision, Minti, PerthNorg, and 88 Miles were all there. Jon from Australianbloggers.com.au sent his apologies.

On reflection I have to say it’s a pretty impressive line-up for a little city on the edge of a desert.

It was great to get together and meet others facing similar challenges launching a web 2.0 company from Perth. A few have decided some presence in the US is essential, but the jury’s still out on that.

With that, make sure you check out the great companies that are putting Perth on the virtual map.
