Like previous webmaster meetings in Dublin this list will grow, keep an eye on the official thread for more attendees. I have yet to confirm if I can attend.

Barcamp Belfast is fast approaching (21st June) and I’m in two minds if I should attend or not. I should be in the North that weekend but I don’t fancy having to travel an overall 12 hours in one weekend and not even leave the country, flying to New York and back would take less time.
There are a few names on the guest list that I wouldn’t mind meeting up with for a small chat and certain powers above me are pushing that I volunteer to speak about Disaster Recovery & Protection.
If I am heading to Belfast you’d probably find me hanging around Michael Kitchen & Danielle McDougall of Aventure Web Host as I’ve few things to pick their brains about but also to try and grab the Micro server they are giving away for free 
I’ve been to their offices in Belfast on more than one occasion and they have always treated me to a really nice lunch. I’ll not go into all the help they have given me in the past but I will say they do what they do extremely well. It’s just a pity the boss man would prefer to sit at home and watch cartoons than to go out and meet up with some interesting people, like me.
I’ve also spied that Michael Wall from Codefixer Software will be attending and although I have never actually met him before we have previously exchanged emails on various subjects. Michael seems to be a sound bloke with a skill for coding so I’m sure it would be good to meet him face to face.
Anyone else that I should be keeping an eye out for?

Have you ever browsed some of the profiles on LinkedIn and realised you are looking at a potential gold mine? Think of all those professionals, CEO’s, sales people and all other members. If only you could tap into their wallet and milk them dry, rich bastards.
If you are really interested in learning how to make money using LinkedIn read on.
LinkedIn isnt an easy market but there again you could try what some moron suggested:
Write an ebook about “How to make money using LinkedIn” and start to sell it here (on LinkedIn).
If you even consider it then you are thick as two planks, in my opinion anyway. No but seriously, if you really want to make money and have pondered all the above then I will suggest this site……just for you.
