[edit] Post-Meetup
I'm in favour of a report à la Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC1. And I think we just created the record for most number of places visited in a wikimeet. —Goh wz 14:21, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
- Heh. How do you guys find the meetup? I thought it was awesome. Great planning everyone. I hope to organise one in November, intend to come? --Terence Ong (Chat | Contribs) 14:37, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
Wei Zhong's Online Diary: Wikipedia Meetup (Singapore). I hope you all don't mind my using your real names because that's how I blog my other outings as well. —Goh wz 16:01, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
- Of meetups on 5 continents, this was one of the best! It was certainly the longest and most active (the first Sydney meetup comes a close second). Thanks for showing me so much of the city. :) Angela. 11:51, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
- I want to add my thanks, as well. I'm glad the timing worked out to allow me to attend, though I wish I could have stayed longer. Next time I'm coming through Singapore I'll check for another meetup. :) kmccoy (talk) 13:03, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
