Toby Miller provides an interesting summary of the waste problem caused by the planned obsolescence of personal electronics -- and hey, if this inspires you, join us for our next Free Geek meeting (April 5th at Common Roots Cafe)!

Free Geek Needs You!

Next Meeting

Our next meeting is Sunday 21 September 2008 at 3PM at Sundays Energy

Where are we at?

We are currently applying to get funding for a space so that FGTC can operate. We still need lots of things to be done and time is limited between the people that are currently involved. We need some more volunteers to help get this great project off the ground.

What can you do?

Drupal Daze Registration is now open!

Drupal Daze is a two-day Twin cities Drupal conference. Register now.

Description

A discussion based class, where each session will focus on learning a specific technology topic.

This is not a lab environment and more focused on discussion and abstracting. A laptop is not required but will probably be beneficial to the discussion. You can lead a session if you like.

Open Circuit presentation on using the RNC as an opportunity for neighborhood-based wireless technology and demonstration of Open Mesh for sharing wireless signals.

Where:
Arise! Bookstore
2441 Lyndale Ave. S. Minneapolis 55405

When:

Thanks to the folks who organized Minnebar this weekend. We all had a great time and were excited to meet other folks who are into using technology to better our community. We hope you will be inspired to join us!

Also, we are in the early stages of organizing a second Drupal event: Drupal Daze. It will take place July 18-20. Let us know if you are interested in presented or planning at admin@tcopencircuit.org.

Open Circuit will be at Minnebar this weekend, Sat. May 10th at Coffman Union. Come to our session to find out about what we're up to and how to get involved!
