Trimble Basecamp?

Hey Trimble guys, if you are watching I'd like to know if you intend to continue the tradition of base camps? Great venue to meet your evangelists and power users, coders and generally drunken geeks.

We (taking the liberty of speaking for a few hie hards) live for this and in my case it's the only time I get let out in public alone.

Speak to the Google guys I'm sure they will agree it's a blast and an occasion to have fun, learn things and get to know one another.

edit anytime between September 22 - October 7 (beerfest)

What about having the basecamp every time (or every second time) at a different place?
Something like: SketchUp on Tour around the world?

That would mean looking for new pubs , we have the whole Boulder thing worked out, everything in walking distance (even crawling) lots of stuff to do, beautiful, great weather and perfect facilities, not forgetting cheap motels.

Also what is a hit is to tour the Sketchup office and see how little work they actually do between climbing walls, pool tables and other distractions.

But now, as they have no office anymore and have to pack their bags and boxes , that's the best chance for a detour on the way to the new office

They do, apparently it's just across the road.

How good was that, Pete?

Baker Street Bar & Grill was just next to my hotel and just around the corner from Google Offices; what else is there that's needed...?

I think Trimble are just starting to realise what they've gotten into...
