Ignite Portland: Feb 19th (A Legion of Tech Event)

It's almost time for Ignite Portland once again! Here's what you need
to know:

* Ignite Portland 5 will happen on February 19th at Bagdad Theater
from 7:00pm to 10:00pm.
* We suggest arriving early to order some food and get a good
seat.
* Ticketholders get in at 5:15pm
* General Admission is at 6:00pm
* Admission is always FREE.

Tickets will be available on our site igniteportland.com on Feb 5th at
10:00am. As always tickets are free. If you don't get a ticket,
don't despair: there will be some general admission at the door.

You still have time to submit your idea for Ignite Portland 5!
Submissions will be accepted until 11:59pm on Saturday, January 24.
We'll announce the selected talks on January 30th.

We are doing something new for Ignite Portland 5. We're accepting 15
second long videos from you, which we will play during the breaks.
Want to contribute something to Ignite Portland without having to go
on stage? Submit your own "15 seconds of Flame" video!

Ignite Portland relies on sponsorships to make this event possible.
Ignite Portland is a nonprofit event and all sponsorship dollars go
toward the costs of putting on the event.

You can learn more about any of the above topics by visiting

Ignite Portland and hope to see you there!

RecentChangesCamp: Feb 20-22 (NOT affiliated with Legion of Tech)

February 20-22, 2009
University Place Hotel, Portland State University, Portland, OR
Free to attend

Recent Changes Camp was born from the intersection of wiki and Open
Space. Going far beyond technology, we're interested in wiki culture
and other networks/groups/etc. that share many of the values implicit
in it — from cultural creatives, to public participation and free
culture advocates. If you use a wiki or you value open collaboration,
Recent Changes Camp is created for you. RCC is about openness and
inclusion, collaboration and community, creativity and flow.
