First Dinner, Lots of Fun
The dinner on Monday night was a blast! Girl Geeks from all ages and various areas of geekdom gathered and learned and shared information. GingerK has posted a great summary of the evening.
Unfortunately the speaker was unable to make it so Emily and I instead gave a presentation on Point2’s switch to Agile/Scrum. The presentation was well received and led to a lot of questions.
I am hoping to plan the next dinner for the fall, likely later in October after BarCamp08.
If you or someone you know is interested in speaking please get a hold of me.
