Mozilla Labs is holding their monthly meetup at Mozilla's new HQ in Mountain View this coming Thursday night. Topic might be of interest to some Wikimedian-type folk...
"We are excited to welcome Joseph Smarr, Chief Platform Architect at Plaxo. Joseph is currently leading Plaxo’s “Open Social Web” initiative to put users back in control of who they know when using socially-enabled sites by using open data-sharing standards. He will be discussing the social web, the underlying protocols that make it possible, and the potential role for the browser to play in this world."

At least a couple folks from the Wikimedia office should be there. Come hang out -- Mozilla's buying pizza!
