Clojurians Log v2

Dear Channel: Are we going to use this channel as our main communications channel during and after the conference? Or are there alternatives we want to use (last year we used twitter with the #euroclojure hashtag to get organised in the evenings/Saturday for instance)?

I find twitter easier on the go (Slack mobile app needs a bit more work..)

how about using something like WhatApp? would that work?

I use it with my family and groups work really well IMHO

I'd prefer #euroclojure on twitter.

@simone has left the channel

@socksy has joined the channel

given that offline maps for Barcelona are not available from Google: Whats a good OpenStreetMap client that supports offline maps?

@martinklepsch: I use "osmand“ and have downloaded the just the osm regoin of barcelona

@ordnungswidrig: I imagine @martinklepsch wants an iPhone app

he said google! simple_smile

oh, yeah. iOS. sorry 😄

then he must use the fine apple maps

forgot about those other things 😄

apple has it’s own maps, right? high quality and such

haha “high-quality” 😄

http://maps.me looks pretty enough

and it’s so proud that when you spotlight for „Barcelona“ it doesn’t suggest Map.app to me simple_smile

One thing to be aware of is the castillian/catalan thing i.e. Avinguda vs. Avenida etc.

what does that mean? 😕

@socksy: http://maps.me looks good! thanks

how did I not find that yet

oh, yes, http://maps.me is also a great option for android

@ordnungswidrig: cool.. I'll check it out.

Anyone around for beers tomorrow?

a light beverage, obviously

+1 for http://maps.me

jonpither: im interested! where are you staying?>

jonpither: I'll be around pl. catalunya tomorrow evening so I may join you if you'll be somewhere near

+1 around as well

most likely me too

Any ideas where to meet?

No local resident in this channel?

jonpither: there are a ton of cafes and bars! hard to choose simple_smile

@frankie: help us out here

Barcelona has many things to offer, what are we looking for?

manzanilla, albondigas, croquetas

if that’s a thing in barcelona

This cervezeria is pretty good https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/F%C3%A0brica+Moritz+Barcelona/@41.3830382,2.1628763,16z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0000000000000000:0x200341909d1e7213

And there must be ham hanging from the ceiling, of course!

And there's plenty of restaurants around

@jonpither: Look for bars that have a foosball table!

frankie: why that?

that’s what I’m looking for simple_smile

To see a lot of that you should go to Mercado de la boqueria https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Mercado+de+La+Boqueria/@41.38201,2.172311,16z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0000000000000000:0x860ac654dc73add5

what's the recommendation?

foosball yes pls

Why don't we keep it simple, i.e. meet at cervezeria say 6.00, and people have in the meantime found a foosball place, then we drift over there

jonpither: +1, shall we meet at Fabrica Moritz at 6?

Yep simple_smile

jonpither: now the harder question, how do we identify each other simple_smile

see you then/there

jonpither: my profile pic is how i currently look!

@pastafari: something tells me we'll be OK.

@jonpither: 👍

if you are there at that time and you see someone looking strange, that’s from here

@pastafari: same here

@pastafari: we shall try and be at the Fabrica Moritz as well... maybe a bit later as we only land at 1610

@thomas great!

@benedek: your profile pic looks like you?! 👀

you will see 😜

Will @fogus come?

ordnungswidrig: I doubt https://twitter.com/fogus/status/613219395842617344

No quite barcelona simple_smile
