Tuttle Club LA

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.

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

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.

Thank you to everyone who made it to Tuttle LA last week despite my absence. I love that it has enough life on its own to keep bringing people together even if not everyone can make it.

And I hope even more people can make it for this week’s meetup. We’ll be discussing work, tech and whatever else happens to be on our minds, as usual, so hopefully you can make it and maybe even bring a friend!

I hope everyone is doing well this week and I hope you can make it on Friday!

Our next Tuttle LA Social Media Cafe will be at Toorak Coffee this Friday, June 4, at 10:30 a.m. We’ll be getting together like we do every other week to discuss work, tech and whatever else happens to be on our minds. The group has had an incredible energy lately, and each of our get-togethers just seems to get better and better, which more intense discussion and more laughs.

I won’t be able to make it this week since I’ll be out of town, but I trust all of the other regulars will be around.

Did you notice how different Tuttle LA felt last time? The dynamics of the group are definitely morphing into something wonderful as more and more people join us. It was the first time that I was unable to get around to talking with everyone. Don’t get me wrong, people weren’t falling out into the streets, but our little side room off the coffee house is getting a little more crowded. And what the hell are they doing to our space!? It was once airy, bright, and zen like. Now we’re meeting amongst racks or prom dresses, children’s shoes, and paintings of car crashes. Bizarre, but truth be told, I like it.

To all the new faces we saw last time, thanks so much for coming out. We loved having you and hope you join us again. To everyone else in LA that wants to meet up with the city’s only social media cafe, follow the directions below

First, just a friendly reminder that Tuttle Club LA will meet on the 28th of August at the Library in Long Beach (our usual spot). ANYONE even remotely curious is welcome to show up. Chances are, we’ll have something interesting to talk about. Mobile phones, social media, film, music… hell, we even had a Rabbi show up last week (and I got a Google Voice invite). That’s how we roll

The Tuttle LA Think Tank

Secondly, I think we’ve just hit a milestone without anyone noticing. The very first Tuttle LA collaborative project was completed 2 weeks ago. Tour Small TV launched last week. It happens to be a web show I’m putting out. Vaughan conjured an amazing graphic logo and Francine whipped up a magical blog (as she does). It’s even hosted on Jeb’s cousins servers. Now that’s a team effort!

I know Tuttle London is starting to do proper consulting which is a fantastic idea. We in LA are a long way from attempting that, but if you’re working on a web or mobile related project and would like some input or advice, why not stop by and see if we can help?
