WWDC09 T-shirt Delivery

07.06.09

I just wanted to let everyone who requested WWDC09 t-shirts know that I will be at the 7/14 GG event with your t-shirt. Change in schedule means I will be in town next week for the event. See you there.

June Geek Gather

06.05.09

OK. So I fell down on the job a bit. I blame it on way too many things to do lately. Come relieve the stress at June Geek Gather! I’m saying the 3rd Tuesday due to a variety of scheduling conflicts. We’re also back to Wilde Roast this time.

We’ll take over the parlor room, if possible. Otherwise, just look for the group wearing propeller beanies.

Ghost Signs

05.14.09

So, I’ve got this friend who is a security geek at the local mega-sized institution of higher learning and such.  …but that’s not the only reason she’s geek-cool.  She also recently self-published this nifty looking book:  http://tinyurl.com/oho4ml

Worth a look-see.

Anyone need a G4?

03.06.09

Hey, folks–I have a G4 with no HD that may or may not be functional (I don’t know without the HD) that I liberated from the recycling at work. It is the 800MHz version, and it looks to have 768MB of SDRAM –Here’s the link to the guts: [LINK]

Price? Cheap. Like FREE, or maybe a Diet Coke at a GG!

Help Desk Software – What is your experience?

01.14.09

We are evaluating helpdesk software right now.   What are you using?  Do you like it?  We need something that will generate a ticket via email, cc the tech who owns the ticket, allow us to sort tickets by client/priority, and be easy to use/learn.

Geek Gather Blog Content Link?

01.06.09

I was wondering if there were a way to aggregate tech-related posts from those of you who post them on your personal blogs on the geek gather blog as well? I have no clue how to do that but I would think that there is some way to feed one thing off of another in some controlled fashion—or copy and past at the very least. I would appreciate an aggregation of that kind of content in one place (not that I don’t want to see you personal blogs). At any rate—maybe we can discuss this at the next GG.
