@rem @rmurphey So excited until I realized you meant the Brighton in UK, not the one in MA,US ;) – Philip Borenstein on twitter

@glennjones done! – Glenn Block on twitter

@gblock yes, I just found cheerio much faster with a low memory footprint and a little less hassel than JSDom to deploy. Would recommend it

Dear Brighton: need a venue at short notice (nov-10), hold 20-60 people. Open space (as in for flying objects) & has Internet. Ideas? – Remy Sharp on twitter

@rem http://fabrica.org.uk/venue-hire/ nice tall space

@glennjones @rem oh yeah fabrica would be perfect! Ask @laurencehill – Seb Lee-Delisle on twitter
@seb_ly @glennjones @laurencehill I called them, clueless guy said "no in today, not sure when the guy is in…". Wonderful. I'll call back – Remy Sharp on twitter
@rem @seb_ly @glennjones sorry for clueless guy - am in and out a lot :-/ what are you after? – laurencehill on twitter
@laurencehill availability of fabrica for Nov-10 @ 10:00-19:30, whether there’s wifi & costs (plus site visit). Email events@leftlogic.com – Remy Sharp on twitter
@laurencehill sorry, squeezed a lot in that last tweet. We’re running a very last minute hack event & looking for a venue that fits our need – Remy Sharp on twitter
@laurencehill fabrica was then suggested by a number of locals, @seb_ly et al – Remy Sharp on twitter
@rem hi there - unfortunately we have an exhibition running to end Nov so no availability I’m afraid – laurencehill on twitter
@laurencehill cheers and cheers for the quick reply – Remy Sharp on twitter
@rem how much space do you need because you might be able to use @welovecreate ? – Andy Parker on twitter
@theavangelist this is what they used in Berlin: http://nodecopter.com/img/venue-big.jpg… we're looking to house 20 or 60 ppl. likely nowhere near as big – Remy Sharp on twitter
@rem well, I think it may be worth asking them, it's photo studio in NEH so there is plenty of room, it's a blank canvas. – Andy Parker on twitter
@theavangelist @rem @laurencehill If you're looking for venue hire, we can hire all or part of our space. Get in touch if you'd like info – Create on twitter
@welovecreate @theavangelist I see the largest room is 90x90 which is too small for the hacking day – Remy Sharp on twitter
@rem it's a shame you can't hire out the North Laines, that place is bloody massive inside!.. but it is a pub – Andy Parker on twitter
@rem we also have the front unit Space http://welovecreate.com/blog/space-at-create/… you are welcome to come and look around, the installation walls are temporary. – Create on twitter
@rem had any joy with hackday location? – Andy Parker on twitter

Looks like node.js for windows is not there yet. Cannot get jsdom onto Azure https://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/develop/nodejs/… works perfectly on http://microformat-node.jit.su/ – Glenn Jones on twitter
@glennjones jsdom is one of the remaining native modules that don't work on Windows, working on it /cc @gblock – Yavor Georgiev on twitter
@theyavor @glennjones @gblock Cheerio is a great jsdom alternative on Windows in situations that it does what's needed: http://encosia.com/cheerio-faster-windows-friendly-alternative-jsdom/… – Dave Ward on twitter

@Encosia @gblock Now got microformat-node working on Azure node.js hosting. Moved from JSDom to Cheerio great module https://github.com/MatthewMueller/cheerio…

@glennjones @Encosia great to hear. Been meaning to try out Cheerio. Jsdom does work, you just have to push the pre built binary. – Glenn Block on twitter

Just released a new version of microformat-node, the parser is about 8x faster, added caching and JS promise support http://glennjones.net/2012/10/faster-version-of-microformat-node/…
