NYC2600

Join us for September’s NYC2600 meeting!

• Who: Us, and hopefully you.
• What: The NYC2600 Meeting, Neo “Theodore” Wick Edition.
• When: Friday, September 2, beginning at 5:00 PM EST.
• Where: Manhattan’s Citigroup Center.
• Why: To meet up, eat food, do things, and joyously partake of a blueberry popsicle.

Here’s how it works:

Show up to the food court at Citigroup Center, 53rd Street and Lexington Avenue! Look for a cluster of tables occupied by friendly hackers who are excited to meet you.

Although the venue has relaxed its previous vaccination and masking requirements, we still ask you to go by 2600’s recommendation and only go to a meeting in-person if you’ve been fully vaccinated. Status will not be checked, we are relying on the honor system.

See you there!

We at NYC2600.net have decided no longer to host virtual meetings at this time.

We began the Virtual NYC2600 meetings as a small consolation event during the initial COVID lockdown, when nobody could be there in person. It provided some solace in difficult and lonely times, but it was never a substitute for the physical meetings.

There was a maintained level of interest in the virtual events for a while, but as restrictions were lessened over the last couple of years interest waned deeply. Since 2022 began, the virtual meetings have had little to no participation displayed. We have, therefore, decided to return this site’s focus solely to the in-person meetings.

We are keeping an eye on the pandemic, behaving responsibly, and have not ruled out reinstating Virtual NYC2600 at some future point should it become as necessary to our community as it once was.

If you wish to share your thoughts on this with us you are more than welcome to contact us via email or Twitter.

Join us for August’s NYC2600 meeting!

• Who: Us, and hopefully you.
• What: The NYC2600 Meeting, Seditious Libel Edition.
• When: Friday, August 5, beginning at 5:00 PM EST.
• Where: In-person at Citigroup Center, or virtually via Zoom.
• Why: To meet up, eat food, do things, and do something wholly unnecessary.

Here’s how it works:

To attend the physical meeting:

Show up to the food court at Citigroup Center, 53rd Street and Lexington Avenue! Look for a cluster of tables occupied by friendly hackers who are excited to meet you.

To attend the virtual meeting:

• Send an email to conf at nyc2600 dot net asking for a Zoom conference invite.
  Please do so even if you were already a recipient of an invite to any previous remote NYC2600 meetings, as those email addresses were not kept. They will not be kept this time, either. These invitations are being handled by a robot which is too busy questioning its purpose to remember you.
• You’ll receive said invite at the email address from which you requested it. With this invite you can join by web, app, or even dusty old telephone (originating numbers will be partially masked from other participants) anytime after the meeting starts up at 5PM EST.
• There’s no step 3!!!

• What: The NYC2600 Meeting, International Call Edition.
• When: Friday, July 1, beginning at 5:00 PM EST.

PLEASE NOTE: attendance at the virtual meetings has virtually ceased, with only one or two people signing in the whole time, and we can only continue to host them if there is sufficient interest.
