Last night we hosted our fifth "An Evening with S60", this time it was at the Element Lounge in downtown San Francisco. For those who don't know, it's an intimate gathering of S60 crew and S60 fans in the area. We had a great turnout of close to 100 guests. The venue was super cool, a few blocks off the beaten path but well worth the walk. An apparent longtime local resident shouted at me, "Welcome to hell. I've been here 45 years." Thank you!

All the latest S60 devices were on display. We had awesome finger foods being passed around with an open bar. Each guest received a goodie bag with a Nokia BH-900 headset, S60 t-shirt, and a bunch of S60 swag. And one lucky guest walked home with a Nokia N95 US-edition! Afterwards we all hiked over the Nokia MOSH party, unfortunately they were filled to capacity and after standing in line (that wasn't moving) for a half hour and hearing complaints of the club being shoulder-to-shoulder inside, we gave up and went to sports/piano bar for a couple pitchers of beer.

I had so many interesting conversations throughout the night, it was a pleasure meeting all of you! Thanks to everyone for such a fantastic evening! Check out all the photos from our Flickr site, big thanks to Phoneboy for all these great pics!

Jukka Eklund from the S60 Multimedia Blog has been heading up one of S60's most innovative apps, the "Mobile Web Server". And now he's launched a blog that's centered around it, say hello to the "Mobile Web Server" blog...

This blog is for everybody who is interested in Mobile Web Server. Blog is run by members of the development team at Nokia. Purpose of the blog is to share information directly from the people who are developing the service: new features, tips and tricks, problems - you name it. In true beta spirit it works the other way around too: all feedback from the readers will be analyzed, commented on and taken directly into the development process at Nokia.
