Hi all, We're organizing the first meeting of New York City Computer Anonymous < http://computeranonymous.org/> group. Computer Anonymous is a group that allows socially conscious people who are interested in technology. In the words of the linked page, "it is not an entrepreneurial meetup, nor is it networking: It is a support group, a place to meet good people and talk about good and bad things."
The first meeting is scheduled for October 29 at 6:30 PM at Pacific Standard, in Brooklyn, NY. More info can be found here: < http://computeranonymous.org/us_newyork.html>. If you'd like to RSVP, follow the instructions on that page or contact me on- or off-list. A few more words of encouragement from the Computer Anonymous site: If you’re from a background which isn’t well-represented in most geeky meetups, come along – we want to make a difference. If you’re from a background which is well-represented in most geeky meetups, come along – we want your help making a difference. If you’re worried about not being computer enough, come. If you think you’re an imposter, come. If your day job isn’t code, come. This isn’t a group of experts, just people. We are interested in the social and technical problems. This is a support group. No-one knows what they are doing . Mark -- Mark A. Matienzo <m...@matienzo.org> Digital Archivist, Manuscripts and Archives, Yale University Library Technical Architect, ArchivesSpace
