Time to local mesh XO’s
Are you stalking UPS drivers with geek-lust for your G1G1 laptop? Do you want to mesh network with other First Day Donors right here in Washington DC? Then be sure to join a group I am starting: OLPC Learning Club – DC.
It is a local group of XO laptop enthusiasts committed to co-learning, hacking, and expanding the One laptop Per Child computational experience and we are having our very first meetup next week:
OLPC LC-DC Holiday Meetup
December 18, 7 PM
Mayorga Cafe & Lounge
3301 14th. St. NW (map)
We will have three special guests with us from other OLPC organizing groups:
- Bryan Berry, External Relations Manager, OLE Nepal
- Christoph Derndorfer and Aaron Kaplan from OLPC Austria
Bryan, Christoph, and Aaron will be giving us an overview of their progress in organizing local OLPC groups in their countries, and ideas on how to expand OLPC LC/DC. Then we’ll have an in-depth geek-fest and discussion around XO laptop usage right here in Columbia Heights.
Be sure to bring your enthusiasm, your commitment, and of course, you shiny green G1G1 XO laptop!
