Off-Broadway Circus-Cabaret on Thursday Night
by Pharos 18 Jul '12

18 Jul '12

Hi post-Wikimaniacs in NYC, I would like to share tickets to this awesome Circus-Cabaret thing on Thursday night in NYC at 9:30pm (right after the Wikidata event): http://spiegelworld.com/empire.html I belong to a local theatre club thing, which means I can get these tickets for $5 each, rather than $59 each. I can get up to four tickets, which means the first three people who reply will be in with me. Locals are welcome too, but priority goes to out-of-town visitors! Thanks, Richard (User:Pharos)

Donate burner phone, metro smartcard?
by Kim Bruning 18 Jul '12

18 Jul '12

I currently have an AT&T prepaid phone with $3 balance remaining (balance rechargable), that I bought as a "burner". This phone is not very useful to me anymore, because the account will expire before I ever use it again. However, the phone might be useful to some wikimedia chapter in .us for guests? Who wants this as a donation? In other news, I still have a total of $30+ on a metro pass and smartpass, which I assume is not recoverable. Would wikimedia wasington like to have these as a donation? sincerely, Kim Bruning --

Sightseeing today
by aude 17 Jul '12

17 Jul '12

Anyone sticking around DC today or for another day? I'd be willing to take a small group of folks somewhere by car, such as Annapolis and to see the Chesapeake Bay, if anyone wants or maybe Mount Vernon (or both). It would be after 11am, once we settle things at the hostel. We'd be back this evening, so this might not be a good idea if you fly out early this evening. Cheers, Katie -- Board member, Wikimedia District of Columbia http://wikimediadc.org @wikimediadc / @wikimania2012

Hi all As I learn your reaction from the stage on last Saturday I think most of you (at least those in Linser Auditorium) are pretty exciting what's happening 389 days later in Hong Kong. We are happy to announce that the General info on our conference wiki http://wikimania2013.wikimedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong is generally set up, and you can check out most info that you need to survive in Hong Kong and we also know that not everyone like to read pages of General-info so a "Must read tips" section was prepared http://wikimania2013.wikimedia.org/wiki/Must-read_tips and we hope which is helpful to you Our community coordinators, Simon & Deryck as well as General Coordinators, Tango & me will keep you update on the latest status of things of the conference as soon as we can publish them So Thank you for your kind attention, safe trip home & lOOking forward to seeing you in HK next year -- Jeromy-Yu Chan, Jerry Co-ordinator in Chief Wikimania 2013 in Hong Kong http://plasticnews.wf/ http://about.me/jeromyu UID: Jeromyu (on Facebook, Twitter, Plurk & most sites) Tel (Mobile): +852 9279 1601 Οὔτε τι τῶν ἀνθρωπίνων ἄξιον ὂν μεγάλης σπουδῆς
