Jessica did two mini talks, one on her view of Women in IT just before dinner and then some information on Creative Commons. It’s great to see familiar faces from previous dinners as well as new faces at each event.
I’ll be posting details soon for our April event. We’re going to try something a bit different to continue the variety in the Dinners and hopefully add a new crowd to our group.
Being a Copyright Geek
Jessica will talk about being a geek who doesn't know anything about programming, and the importance of support industries, like copyright, to the geek world.
