Last Friday, Open Business, in collaboration with Bookmooch and Magnatune, held the inaugural MiniBar, a geek social meant to rival SF’s CC Salon. It was a whole lot cooler than most techie meets, being hosted in a warehouse bar off Bricklane and having actual DJs and everything.

Here I am with Open Business Hannah - you can see lots more photos here. I was especially pleased to meet Ben Goldacre, who writes the Bad Science column for the Guardian, and Mark Pilkington, mission control for Strange Attractor.
