Legion of Tech Happy Hour Meetup, WhereCampPDX & Other Events

[Dawn Foster]

A few important things we think you should know about (details below):
* On Oct. 23rd, we have a special edition of the Legion of Tech Happy
Hour Meetup at Jace Gace
* Don't forget to RSVP for WhereCampPDX happening THIS WEEKEND!
* We still need sponsors for Ignite Portland 4! Without enough
sponsors, we will not be able to put on this event.

*** Legion of Tech Happy Hour Meetup Oct. 23 ***

The next (and final for 2008) Legion of Tech Happy Hour Meetup is just
one week away. These are super informal meetups where we hang out,
talk about geeky stuff (wikis, open source, new technologies,
openid, ...), and wind down with like-minded people over beverages.
Please RSVP if you plan to attend: http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/1234039

Since this is the last meetup of the year (it doesn't make sense to
have a 4th Thursday meetup in Nov/Dev to conflict with the holidays),
we wanted to do something a little different ...

Thanks to a sponsor who wishes to remain anonymous we will be having
the meetup at Jace Gace. Our sponsor will cover the fee to rent the
space for the evening, but you will be on your own to pay for drinks /
waffles. Have you ever been to Jace Gace? They have the most amazing
waffles and they have beer / wine! Mmmm, waffles and alcohol. Heaven.

Thursday October 23, 2008 from 5:30pm - 7:30pm
Jace Gace
2045 SE Belmont

*** WhereCampPDX Oct 17-19 ***

Did you remember to RSVP for WhereCampPDX happening this weekend here
in Portland? http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/1090645

WhereCampPDX is a free unconference focusing on all things
geographical and cartographical. This informal meeting of minds
welcomes all geo-locative enthusiasts, anyone who asks "where am I" or
feels the need to "know their place". We have games, discussions, a
hackathon and much, much more.

They’re all super impressive, and it will be difficult to select the
final 13. We continue to be amazed at the creativity, cleverness, and
general awesomeness of people in Portland. Come see these amazing
presentations at the Bagdad! We'll make our ticketing system available
