Hey
This isn't directly FreeGeek Related, but since it can help the needy
get nerdy, I figure I'd announce it here.
Event: Vancouver Wireless Cadre Kick Off
"Free the Wifi and make it mesh"
Host: Boris at Bryght
When: Thursday, September 13th, at 5:30 PM
Where: Bryght Offices. Suite 400, 1 Alexander Street, Vancouver, BC
Synopsis: Many have tried, and failed to bring Affordable, Sustainable
Wireless Internet Access to Vancouver. In attempting to kill the evil
Dial Up Internet Connection by providing something better, we have
learned the following:
1. Change must come from the Grassroots
2. Mesh allows for users to own their own infrastructure
3. Wifi is fun
So, check out the Meraki Mesh stuff at Bryght, where we'll show off
DogOnRails, MIT Roofnet, OLSR and Meraki technologies and talk about how
to connect the needy so they can be more nerdy!
Hope to see some FreeGeek peeps there!
