I am once again organizing a dinner gathering during the Macworld conference for Mac small business owners and developers. This year's MacSB Macworld dinner will take place on Tuesday, January 15, starting at 6.p.m. at Chaat Cafe in San Francisco. We will discuss the latest keynote announcements, plan future iPhone applications, and eat Indian food.
Chaat Café is located at 320 3rd Street (corner of 3rd and Folsom) in downtown San Francisco, one block from Macworld and the Moscone conference center. The restaurant has free Wi-Fi and power outlets near some tables, so bring your laptop to show off your latest creations. You will order food and drink individually near the restaurant entrance and pay only for what you personally eat or drink (typically less than $10). Metered parking is free after 6 p.m. or you may park in the building's parking garage (enter on 3rd Street) with two hours of validated parking if you choose to drive.
Past MacSB gatherings in 2007 and in 2006 have been good opportunities to reflect on the changing Mac software market, share tips with like-minded small business owners, or attend group therapy as Apple just annihilated your product with their own software release. Mac fans are welcome to come out and meet the independent developers of some of their favorite apps.
I have warned the restaurant staff to expect a big crowd but you can help make things run a bit smoother by leaving an RSVP in the comments of this post or on Upcoming.org.

Niall, this sounds like a good time. I appreciate you taking the initiative to get it together.
I'll plan to be there, and possibly one more from my company.

We will be there (2 of us) but since we are exhibiting, it might be 6:30 or 6:45 before we can get there.
