Hi there!
Unfortunatly I'm not in San Francisco at the moment, but I'll be there
and come to NOISEBRIDGE around November 23th and I'm OK for a donation
pledge of 10$ to the NB-1 Radio Transmitter.
Feel free to remind me when I'll be in the place indeed I'll have a big
lot of other things in mind.

Also I suggest it would be great if NB radio could be broadcasted as a
web radio also.
This way, guys around the world can hear the Noisebridge and especially
from France where I am at the moment.

Here is the event that I'm setting up:
