Manoa Geeks - July 2009 July 16, 2009

Now that we've all recovered from the sunburns and weight gain from the fantastic Hawaii Geek Meet, it's time to think ahead to the next Manoa Geeks!. The last few weeks have been chock full of tech news, so I know we're all hungry for a chance to immerse ourselves in a room full of fun, brilliant people to share ideas, show off our latest projects, and catch up. Bring your gadgets!

Once again we're blessed to have a host with an eye for technology -- IBM! They've provided for a good space for demos and talkstory -- and yes, free parking.

Hopefully this note reaches you early enough to mark your calendars and to start collecting cool links and things to share. And you've got something you want to demo, let us know ASAP!

Please invite your friends!
