Playful in Brighton

Iain Tait emailed us to tell us about this great event in Brighton on Wednesday December 10th (8pm-10pm) – £5 App Meet

A meet-up for programmers, web developers and designers to discuss and showcase their “£5 apps” – lightweight software created by one or two people who take a simple idea and run with it.

For the first talk Aleks Krotoski will be talking about Spaceship (http://www.toastkid.com/Spaceship.html) a “text adventure built by the collective hivemind of The Guardian gamesblog’s community”.
