by Betsy Richter

Updated 12/21 to extract the live streaming couplets — thanks for your support!
I’m at 30 Hour Day — the 30 hour livestreaming telethon benefiting 3 PDX charities — up close and personal right now (well, at least for the first 12 hours or so). As part of the OurPDX sponsorship of #30HD, I’m [...]

30 Hour Day: Charity event? Or Insidious Cult of Anti-sleep?

Lunch 2.0 tomorrow at CubeSpace!

by Betsy Richter

By now, I’m hoping that you’ve already RSVP-ed for tomorrow’s Lunch 2.0 at CubeSpace at noon, where you can meet and mingle with 133 other PDX-ers involved in some way, shape or form with technology. (Reading this blog? That’s probably close enough…!)
