Tuttle LA for Sept. 10, 2010: New Venue

Tuttle LA at Toorak Coffee

The photo above was taken at our beloved Toorak Coffee, Tuttle LA’s venue for the past year. It was a fantastic place: open, bright, strong wifi, big tables and excellent grub. Sadly, we got word earlier this week that Toorak had closed its doors for good. If anyone from Toorak is reading this, we’d like to thank you for your hospitality. Truly.

So where next? Jeb did a fair amount of searching and found us a cozy new place to meet. It’s called cha FOR TEA in Long Beach. Jeb says “The food is good, the tea is amazing, there’s good music and the patrons are interesting to watch. Also freeway close and free wifi.” Sounds the business, right? There’s a bank of tables on the back right that should suit us well.

I hope you can join us this Friday! Follow #TuttleLA on Twitter, or our TuttleLA Twitter List for more information.

Tuttle LA for Aug. 13, 2010

Geoffrey Hickman — Thu, 12 Aug 2010 22:04:13 +0000

Hello kids, It’s time for our bi-monthly Tuttle Club gathering. I always find it hard to describe what Tuttle Club is only because it’s so many things. In a nutshell, it’s a meet-up of people interested in Social Media, internet and mobile technologies, and ideas. A loose community of coders/programmers, graphic designers, social media professionals (and plenty of non professionals), musicians, filmmakers, marketers, and ideas people. It’s the only thing of it’s kind in the Greater Los Angeles area. It’s a casual setting. It’s breezy and conversational. It’s whatever you want it to be. And the best thing? ALL ARE WELCOME. Oh, and it costs nothing to attend. If you’re free Friday morning, why not stop by at your leisure?

Now on to something pretty cool. I’ve been receiving a series of emails from Tuttle founder Lloyd Davis about his journey to the last SXSW. Not just content with flying into Texas from London, Lloyd chose to fly into Boston and travel the country by train down the East coast, through the American south, and eventually to Los Angeles. There’s some great stories there, triumphs, set-backs, mini Tuttle meet-ups, and some amazing people he’s met along the way. I HIGHLY suggest you sign-up. You can do that right here.

Hullo all! Just a reminder, it’s Tuttle week once again! They sure come up quick. I’m looking forward to hearing Al Pavangkanan’s Comic-Con stories and seeing how everyone is getting along with things. Tuttle Club is LA’s only regular social media cafe. If you’re interested in these sorts of things (including all things shiny and gadget-y) why not come down and see what we’re all about?

Vaughan, Kelly and Jen at Tuttle LA

Well, it’s been a big week for me — a move, a birthday, and an exciting new job offer! Unfortunately, that may mean that I won’t be able to come to Tuttle quite so often, at least for the next few months, but I’ll see what I can do, and I’ll still make sure all the other regulars will still be showing up for coffee and conversation every other week.

That said, this Friday we’ll be doing the usual, discussing work, freelancing, tech, design, phones and lots more. Join us, bring a friend, and be ready to meet some smart and creative new people. Last week a friend of mine from middle school just happened to be nearby and joined us, which was quite a treat for me.

It's a baby at Tuttle LA!

I hope everyone is doing well this week — can you believe it’s already July? Well, if you’re not heading out of town for the holiday weekend (or if you have some time to spare before you leave), we’d love to see you at Tuttle LA this Friday!

We’ll be doing the usual, discussing work, freelancing, tech, design, phones and lots more. And we may have some more special little guests this week since people’s kids are out of school. I loved learning about Moshi Monsters last week with David’s son, and it was great to play with Jeb’s youngest daughter.
