Here and Now: Supporting local communities through online activity
October 25, 2006
If you work at the intersection of technology and community-building, we hope you'll join us for the October gathering of Social Tech Brewing's Vancouver chapter. Social Tech Brewing brings together folks from nonprofit organizations, community service, social activism, social ventures and technology to share ideas -- and beer!
Our October event will explore online tools, campaigns & projects designed specifically to support communities in the Lower Mainland. A handful of charismatic guest speakers will give short presentations about their Vancouver-related projects, which will then be followed by a general discussion of strategies and tips for using online tools to support local initiatives.
Presentations & discussion will start at 7:00 and wrap by 7:45. At about 8:00 we'll move across the street to 6 Acres pub for another hour of libations, gossip exchange, and general consipracy-hatching.
Please RSVP and let us know you're coming. We hope to see you there!
PS: We're still looking for a few more guest speakers to do 5 minute presentations of their Vancouver-centric projects. If you're interested in presenting, please add a comment below or send an email to [email protected]. Thanks!

Hey Aaron, I'd love to present the THINK SALMON project that we just launched. Check it out and let me know if you think it would be appropriate.
