I just met up with the workgroup in the Deutsche Mathematikervereinigung (German Association of Mathematicians) with interest spanning "Information and Communication" - which turns out to mean that they care about libraries, about communicative tools for mathematicians, and spend their time thinking about these things, and meeting at conferences.

Met up with is to say participated in their workshop.

Stunned them all with the relevation that I blog. "Wow, a real, live blogger! Here!"

And promptly got elected to their executive committee.

Kinda unexpected result of going to a conference.
