Created by two Salem web geeks, Marc Amos and Angelo Simeoni, the Build Guild is a monthly event where folks in the web industry (designers, coders, project managers, hobbyists, etc.) can get together to talk web, debate industry topics, share ideas, make professional connections, land gigs, and discuss the real reasons why mustaches need to make a comeback.

Follow the Build Guild on twitter, be sure to join the Flickr group, sign up for the Build Guild LinkedIn group, and if you're on Facebook, join the Build Guild Facebook group.

Alright, alright, I'll try to drag my ass down, seeing as you guys are bringing in the big guns for this one.

Will there be mustachioed groundhogs?

Kyle MR

First! Will Obama be attending?

ctraganos

Will I get kicked out for having a beard? It's like a Mustache +1

Anyone in cambridge, arlington, somerville, etc want to carpool? If so --> @ctraganos

marcamos

@jlbruno: Superb! No mustachioed groundhogs, but a bearded Bill Murray might swing by.

@Kyle: Not sure he has the time now?

@ctraganos: Kicked out? No, you will be promoted to Lead Awesome, in fact.

Would it be okay to bring a baby along? I've been wanting to come to one of these for ages, but I can't go far from the little one yet. She's pretty good with people if I carry her, but didn't know how smoky the bar might be. Thanks! --Sherri Alexander

jeckman

I so would be going to this, but I think I'm out on the west coast that day.

marcamos

@Sherri: Sure, we've had baby/infants/wee-tykes attend here and there in the past. The bar/restaurant is non-smoking, so no worries about that. At most, it'll get loud-ish and there will be glass everywhere, but that's it.

@jeckman: The west coast will be there on the 3rd.

scottnelle

I'm going to try like hell to make it. This could be my last chance for a little while.

estherswhite

Will I be the only woman there?

marcamos

Oh heck no. I can already see about five or six women on the list to the right.

jennsweb

I'll be representing for the Northey Street CSS Posse...

ctraganos

Is there going to be a Merch booth there? Those BuildGuild and Simplebits battery shirt would sell out

marcamos

A decent idea, but the Build Guild tees are setup for print-on-demand when purchased, so I'd have to buy a bunch first ... and I'm lazy/poor.

johninsalem

look forward to it!

jeresig

Sweet, I'll be there (snagging a ride with @ctraganos)!

Caitlin Jewell Silverscape

hi! I'm @caitlinjewell fyi - NOT a recuriter/headhunter/evil person. I'll be coming from @Silverscape I'm looking for a FT developer. Will bring a sign for the job board wall. Hope they have GOOD craft on tap. looking fw to meeting some of my favorite Tweeple.

Sherri Alexander

Bah, I have to reverse myself. Was going to bring me and the baby, but the baby is sick. Say "hi" to everyone for me...I'll try and make the next one, even if there aren't any cewebrities attending! :)
