People ask me to let them know when something is happening that they might be interested in and I try and do that, but this month there are so many events I thought I would also summarise them here…
- March 4th is another Dorkbot Newcastle in the Life Lab at the Centre for Life. This month Sam Goldwater talks about animation techniques, David King talks about his KISS ethos (Keep It Simple, Stupid), and Brian Degger talks about the curve from scientist to new media.
- March 12th is Datarama. This month is an AV and Science festivals special at the Start and Shadow. This is a show and tell with a artistically creative slant. You never quite know what you will see and it is worth a visit.
- March 13th and 14th is the second Maker Faire at the Centre for Life. This is a chance for the UK’s mad inventors (including me) have a chance to show off there creations.
- March 17th NE Bytes is back at Newcastle University. This month features Visual Studio 2010 with Richard Fennell and Matt McSpirit from Microsoft talks about System Centre in the R2 Wave.
- March 20th and 21st is BarCampNorthEast3 at the Centre for Life. This is a chance to share your experiences and skills with others and you are coming. Attendance is mandatory but I promise you that you will enjoy it. :-)
- March 29th is Super Mondays. This month is all about mobile payments featuring John Lunn from PayPal.
Finally March 10th and 24th is the fortnightly Newcastle Coffee Morning from 8:30am at the The Settle Down Café. Just a chance to have a cupper and a chat before work.
That is it for now. I recommend all these events. There are more details on the events web sites but feel free to ask me if you want any more details.

Well you and Martin have mentioned Barcamp so much, I really must come along to this one to see what it's all about :) Will see you at Dorkbot tomorrow night too.
Also in events, you may want to add Twestival on the 25th?
Well remembered there. I believe it is at The Tyne (where they have proper beer :-) ). More details at… http://newcastle.twestival.com/
