The Isle of Man Social Media Club Third Thursday lunch/dinner is a regular and informal gathering of people from a variety of disciplines, including marketing, PR and IT. This month, we’ll be meeting on Thursday 19th December at Jabberwocky.

We’ve been able to chat around a variety of topics related to social media, such as ethics, legislation, policing and more fun aspects of various social media platforms. Whilst we are all probably used to Twitter, Facebook and YouTube, we’re always keen to learn about new platforms and trends you may have spotted.

Following our vote for a change of venue, the consensus points us to Jabberwocky, on Duke Street in Douglas (that’s the end of Strand Street, across from the pedestrian lights). Jabberwocky have a friendly team and have a good quality lunchtime menu with Bagels, Jacket Potatoes, Wraps and daily specials. They are also social media savvy, with a Facebook and Twitter presence.

Hope you can make it. If you can, help us plan numbers by giving us a shout in the comments …

We’ve had a really good response to our request for votes for our new venue for the Isle of Man Social Media Club’s Third Thursday venue. Thank you to everyone who participated.

The shortlisted venues were (in no particular order):

Coffee Exchange
Bar George
Jabberwocky
Carnival Lounge

We also asked for any other ideas, and we received a few great establishments as alternative options. Although we got enough votes in for the main poll, we’ll certainly bear these in mind for future.

It was a close a one, with votes being taken to the “second round” due to a tie between Bar George and Jabberwocky. Oh the tension.

So we’ll start making arrangements for Jabberwocky to book us a table for the next Third Thursday, on 19th December. We’ll be upstairs, where it might be a bit quieter and we have more room.

Jabberwocky do great food and is a favourite of some of our regulars, particularly for language evenings. With lots of room upstairs with comfy chairs we should be able to grow to larger groups as we need.

The full results can be viewed in on the Excel Live spreadsheet.

We hope to see you for the final Third Thursday of 2013.
