Our next meeting is this Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009!

If you plan on coming tomorrow, please “register” here, so we know how much food to get, etc.

Please make sure you head over to the meeting topic wiki and post some ideas for talks, discussion topics, etc, if you have them.

Location
——–

We’ll be meeting up at the Snowtide offices. It’s located in the Potpourri Plaza in Northampton, across the street from the Stop and Shop.

Format
——

We’re going to stick with the unconference format. We’d like you to think about a topic that you would be interested in talking about and then post it to our “Suggested Topic” wiki page. Any topic you might be interested in talking about is great and don’t worry about having a formal presentation; if you can talk about the topic for five minutes, you’re all set. You’ll talk about your topic and then let people ask questions and start talking to each other. Think of it as a way to get a conversation started.

Food
—-

We’ll be ordering a party platter from D’Angelo’s, probably two pizzas, and there’ll be a pile of soda, tea, and bottled water. A suggested donation of $8 will cover the snacks and drinks. We’ll be putting any money above and beyond the cost of the food towards future meeting costs.

If anyone has any particular dietary needs or requirements, let us know. We’ll do what we can to get something for everyone.
