airurando | evening | 20:26 |
moylan | hi | 20:26 |
airurando | how are you moylan | 20:28 |
moylan | getting by, yourself? | 20:29 |
airurando | hope Friday wasn't too troublesome doe you after thursday. | 20:29 |
airurando | I'm grand | 20:29 |
airurando | just finished up my 3 day weekend. | 20:29 |
airurando | at work that is... | 20:30 |
moylan | didn't go far on friday and have been taking it easy since. | 20:30 |
moylan | at work over the weekend? is that normal? | 20:30 |
airurando | shift pattern | 20:31 |
airurando | work fri sat sun every second weekend | 20:31 |
airurando | 12 hour shifts | 20:31 |
moylan | 12 hour shifts. that can't be good. | 20:31 |
airurando | thats why I needed to get away early on Thursday night. | 20:31 |
airurando | Its not too bad | 20:32 |
airurando | on the plus side this week I only work Wed and Thurs | 20:32 |
moylan | so at least it has it's upside. | 20:33 |
airurando | indeed | 20:33 |
airurando | moylan: did you read my mail re the June Geeknic | 20:33 |
moylan | i saw an email about the geeknic. something about not clashing with togs weekend thingy. i went to the first 2 geeknics but haven't been to one since. mobility issues. | 20:34 |
moylan | it did raise something that i think would be nice. a central database/calendar of events in an area. | 20:40 |
airurando | I think opensourceireland was started for that purpose | 20:43 |
airurando | its a .org | 20:44 |
moylan | perhaps but that is a very narrow interpretation of events. the people you are also trying to attract are young, nerds and gamers. so you'd need to see concerts/gaming events/cons that might conflict. | 20:44 |
moylan | and thats only a small example. there are many other events that might draw off potential interested parties. | 20:45 |
airurando | good point. I'm thinking too narrowly. | 20:45 |
airurando | but then again if we look hard enough we'll never find a free weekend. | 20:46 |
moylan | but it would be easier to organise when you can balance the event against possible conflicts. just as a gamer i go to sessions with other gamers and to quote the expression 'it's like herding cats.' | 20:48 |
airurando | I hear ya | 21:00 |
airurando | Its just knowing where to draw the line. | 21:01 |
airurando | and more importantly, what bloody events are on. | 21:01 |
moylan | but it would be nice if there were a central point/calendar of all events no matter how trivial. | 21:01 |
airurando | thats why I sent the mail out. | 21:01 |
airurando | agreed | 21:01 |
moylan | wonder if there is some way to poke something like google calender to show such? | 21:09 |
airurando | moylan: It would take a far wiser man than me to figure that out. | 21:13 |
airurando | perhaps you? | 21:13 |
moylan | same here. i must learn learn web scraping or using an api to access such information but my concentration levels at the mo are low. | 21:14 |
airurando | hi jpich | 21:15 |
jpich | hello! | 21:24 |
airurando | heh first IRC contact. | 21:27 |
jpich | Is it? naaah :O | 21:30 |
