Dinner at Chinoise

I’ll have to call this a personal first: I had dinner at Chinoise yesterday with a group of people that I’d never actually met in person before, all arranged at the last minute via blog trackbacks.

Besides finally meeting Boris, I got to meet Chris, Lee, Kris, Amanda, and Silas. I’d never been to Chinoise before, but I’ll be back soon–great food, wonderful presented. The conversation was enjoyably geeky; Boris and I double-teamed Lee and Chris on the “you need a Nokia N91” front while the other half of the table discussed photo management software and backup strategies. Here are a couple pictures from Boris’s Nokia 6630, uploaded directly to Flickr during dinner. I really need to get a better phone.

    Thanks, I just noticed. My comment RSS feed wasn’t updating either, so I didn’t find this comment until I fixed the RSS feed, but thanks for trying :-).

    Kris’ fried was named Silas - and i hope the spelling is right.

    I found this via Technorati, FWIW…

    Hey Scott, did you know that our friendly robots in Seattle are using Typo? They’re the guys behind 43 things and 43 places…
