Fog, I just realized that you are THE Solarized guy... super cool!  :thumb:

BTW, this just went live this morning. I sent the journalist some keyboard shots and one of them was used...

(disregard the over the top headline; the article itself is a decent write up)

I had no idea you were the guy who created the solarized color scheme.  I've been infatuated with that for a long time.

Glad to hear it! All the emacs/vim rivalry is now forgotten :)

Didn't see this until it was too late, but I'd be interested in another Seattle meetup in the future.

I'll be arranging another meetup sometime in early April.  I'll let you know.

Damn, sad I missed it. I don't have anything cool to show off, but I'd love to see some of the cool boards people have.

Bah, missed this because I turned email notifications of PMs off when I was visiting daily.

Up for the next one and will bring my Topre, Phantom, Lightsaver v2 and Model M!

I was on vacation for last week, but my plan was to setup the next one sometime around the 11th or the following weekend.  I tried to reserve a place before I left town, but there were some weird issues with the coffee shop not answering my calls. Weird... :D




EDIT: In addition to this, I have been saving usernames of people that are interested and I plan to send out messages when I arrange details. I want to copy some of the nice things the Portland meetup group has done as well. They created their own subreddit.

As you can see, I failed miserably at setting up another meetup in April. I did set something up for the beginning of August though.

Hope to see you all there!
