WordPress Party Next Monday

Asides, Events

On Monday May 21 we’re having a WordPress party at Thee Parkside in San Francisco. It’s a cool dive-type bar across the street from a park at 17th and Wisconsin, and they have a free ping pong table. (You may want to bring your own paddle though.) The party will get started around 8 PM and go until they kick us out. What’s the occasion? Well, WordPress 2.2 is out, WordPress.com is about to pass a million blogs, and we’re coming up on our 4th birthday since WP’s first release.

    That is really wonderful Matt. A big congratulations from my small country Bangladesh.

    We have a pretty strong dedicated but small number of users here in Bangladesh. One of them ( hasin hyder ) even wrote a book on wordpress !

    Good luck on the party. I was a ping pong champion at school. Give us some photos at the end of the day : )

    If you ever come down to Florida, we’ll definitely ping-pong it up.

    Cool beans… perhaps if I’m not wiped from work, I’ll cruise over and say hello. :)

    Congrats on the milestones!! Unfortunately, up here in the Great White North some of us have to work and can’t just flit off to SF to party….

    Wish we could though…..

    Party HARD!

    Congrats, and wish I could make it, but I’m signed up for this at the same time. How late do you plan to go?

  • Matt May 21, 2007 @ 1:45 pm

    I would say it’s going to go steady until at least 1 AM.

  • Kingsley May 21, 2007 @ 2:01 pm

    Sweet, I might just make it then.

    Hey All!,

    I’m in Toronto so can’t make the ping-pong shindig in San Fran!

    Apparently Bill Gates is a big ping-pong fan too.

    You may want to check out the below article for some logistics party hints though…
