Texas Watchdog to host meetup Jan. 17

Texas Watchdog, the relatively new local watchdog group, is planning to host a blogger/citizen-journalist/activist meetup of sorts at the Stag's Head Pub at 2:00 pm on January 17.

Here's a blurb from their earlier blog-post announcement:

Come on out and hang with our staff. We want to know how we can help local bloggers and citizen journalists in reporting and using freedom of information laws in the Houston area — and find out how we can better investigate and keep an eye on local and state government agencies in the Houston area.

[snip]

Bring your story tips, your questions, your complaints — and let’s have a refreshing beverage and relax some, too!

If you want to pass along story ideas to the Texas Watchdog folks or just learn from working new-media journalists how to get info out of your local school or METRO or other public entity -- this sounds like a perfect opportunity! And the fried mushrooms aren't half bad at the Stag's Head either.
