Hello hacks hackers of Hong Kong! After a three-month hiatus, you're invited to a new meetup on Wed Oct 8 at 8pm.
Slight change of plans. Due to that little protest happening, we're going to hold a more informal discussion about how the protest was covered and what tools and techniques we used to cover the event. It will be a great discussion!
There will be time for a discussion and also to network with other media professionals, programmers, designers, etc.!

Meetup has allowed me to meet people I wouldn't have met naturally - they're totally different than me.
