I'm going to be in the Providence/Boston area at the end of this month. Any locals want to get together and meet IRL? :) I might be able to show an unannounced product from our Sector 0 development program. As long as we kept it quiet. :) Chris

Sounds like fun, too bad it is the wrong side of the country.

Hey, Just saw this. Is it too late? B or P, both close enough for me.

Dave, Dan: I'm a mentor at Betaspring, so I'll be up in Providence frequently for the next few weeks. Are you two free to get together next week? Anyone else want to join? Chris

Chris,

 

I'm available anytime with a bit of notice. I'll PM my contact info.  Really looking forward to meeting/chatting.  Will you bring along some Betaspring entrepreneurs, too?

They're locked in a room for the next five weeks, getting their companies ready for launch :) Well, not really...but I probably shouldn't distract them. This should be fun! Let's see if we can get a few folks to agree on a date...and we'll have a fun "Netduino and more" evening. Chris P.S. I better not tell the entrepreneurs that I'm hanging out with George Clooney's doppelganger. That would really distract them.

Ah... This is awkward.  If we're going to meet, you'll find out soon enough.

My profile picture *is* George Clooney.  It's not me.  :(

 

I do have a similar hair color, but noone has EVER mistaken me for George.  Not once.  Ever.  Not going to happen, either.  <_<

 

Looking forward to the meetup -- and to FINALLY be privy to some Secret Labs secrets!

I may have a job interview this week in Jersey so I'll hopefully know by Monday evening my schedule.  Will report back.

Wednesday evening it is then! Let's see if Dave can make it...and then we can coordinate via PM on location. I'm bringing some unannounced, non-Netduino prototype hardware with me :) Chris

Hey Chris, Dan,

 

I was originally planning to possibly take a ride to Connecticut to meet with a recruiter which put me in the area but that has fallen through. So far my week is pretty open and I was thinking about just taking the ride up from Jersey anyway.  The weather is nice and the Challenger really needs to be blown out after sitting in the garage all Winter.  That combined with Chris teasing us with some unannounced prototype hardware is just the incentive I needed.

 

So I will take a ride up and bring Pandora's Box along with me too.  There is a 50/50 chance my fiance may want to come too if you guys don't mind.  She is very much a part of my crazy projects now.

 

Just let me know where you want to try to get together and I'll be there.  I will PM both of you my cell and personal email if that makes communication easier.

Just waking up this morning finally back in New Jersey. Cynthia and I wanted to say what a great time we had talking tech over dinner with Chris Walker and Dan T. Lots of great things happening with everyone and their projects. We took some time out to visit a micro distillery in Rhode Island who makes great Whiskey and Vodka and revisited historic areas of Boston yesterday. Of course being Paranormal Investigators we hit all the cemeteries first. Again, great time and great to meet both Chris and Dan. Can't wait until the next Meet and Greet.

Dave, Dan: Thanks for taking the time to meet up. Dave--your Pandora's Box (sensor data and analysis) product was pretty cool. I can tell that you've done a lot of work to make the software and packaging so polished. Dan--you aren't actually George Clooney's doppleganger, but the conversation was fun and fascinating. Thanks for the gift! We're definitely going to need to do more meetups like this. Along with the hackathons, I get to meet so many cool community members. Chris
