James: They might be on the list, but they’re not hanging around in the real world. I went to the girlgeek dinner event that was held recently and met some very interesting people. I’m not sure GeekUp is reaching this audience however, and I’m starting to wonder whether they are bothered.

Chloe: I didn’t cross-examine the organisers because I was only visiting, apparently they did give a bit of an open-air talk which I missed, but there was no real content and more chat than technical discussion. I’m not sure if this is typical of the event in Manchester though.
