there are individual user groups as well.

NEBytes for Microsoft: http://www.nebytes.net/

Ruby NorthEast: http://rubynortheast.com

PhP NorthEast: http://phpne.org.uk/

Ask your profs when you get back to Uni. I found out about these by chatting with a Newcastle Uni grad student.

They tend to help each other out so if you follow them on twitter, you'll get info on what's going on.

I may restart JavaScript North East soon too. It's hibernating for the winter at the moment.

Feel free to hit me up when/if you do. I run JavaScript Weekly and could give it a mention.
