Just a very quick posting to remind/notify people who may have missed/forgotten after the Christmas holidays that the next London VMware User Group(VMUG) meeting is taking place on Thursday the 10th of February 2011. The day is sponsored by Veeam and has some top class sessions by Scott Vessey of vmwaretraining.blogspot.com/ fame,Gabrie van Zanten of gabesvirtualworld.com/ fame, Chris Dearden of jfvi.co.uk fame and Simon Long of The Slog fame’s first step for Operation #PinkShirt by presenting at this VMUG will all be presenting session (lets hope Gabrie remembers his passport this time ). If you haven’t registered i would highly recommend you do so ASAP as these are more often than not fully booked a week or two before the event.

After the VMUG the standard vBeers will take place. If you’ve somehow never heard of vBeers before the below is just for you . Sadly yet again I can’t make the VMUG or vBeers after due to my being on holiday

vBeers

Is an informal get together of virtualisation enthusiasts and professionals to meet and discuss all things IT.  It’s a great opportunity to network, learn and meet like minded people.

The following is part quoted from Simon Seagrave’s Website :

Enjoy Talking Virtualization? Come & Socialise at vBeers!

Fancy meeting up every month with other IT virtualization enthusiasts to socialise and chat over a cold beer, wine or soft-drink?  If so, then vBeers is for you!  This is a great opportunity to meet with other virtualization enthusiasts and professionals and enjoy discussing all things virtualization, and in fact anything else that comes up in conversation…

vBeers is open to everyone so whether you are a VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, Citrix XenServer user/fan or none of the above it really doesn’t matter as “it’s all about the virtualization”.

The London vBeers meet-up is held at the Pavilion End Pub .  Details and directions below:
