Yesterday for the first time, after around 2 months of trying, I finally managed to drag myself out of bed early enough to make it to my first Edinburgh Coffee Morning, or #EdCM for the cool hashtag kids on Twitter.

If you aren’t aware of EdCM you can find out more details here on the 38 Minutes Ning network. At first glance it looks a bit like a weekly meeting of The Cult of Mac with Macbooks and iPhones everywhere but its basically a bunch of like minded souls with an interest in Web 2.0 meeting up every Friday for a chinwag and a coffee. I had the virtue of turning up the day their Big Twit in Chief, Mike Coulter, was hosting a Social Media Quiz, and no my hastily cobbled together team, The Hashtag Bandits, did not win.
