This informal door64 meet-up is open to any door64 member interested in meeting other members and improving the door64 community. Come on out to network and have a good time in a relaxed, fun, and social atmosphere.

Location:
Triumph Cafe (http://www.triumphcafe.com/) -- Back outdoor patio (or inside per weather)
3808 Spicewood Springs
Austin, TX 78759
(Coffee/tea available, and lunch for those who want to hang around afterwards. On you, of course.)

Reason:
First, I would be excited to meet you (especially if we haven't met already). It's rather difficult to track down 7000+ people, you know. Both existing and brand new door64 members are most welcome to attend!

Secondly, I constantly aim to take the door64 community in a direction that best serves our members. I would much rather brainstorm with friends about how to achieve this, and these meet-ups can also serve that purpose.

How to RSVP:
Comment below if you can attend, AND while you're doing so, tell other attendees a little about you, or what you're looking for. (Thanks to Becky for the suggestion!)

BY THE WAY: To unsubscribe from just this post (so you don't get notified every time someone else RSVPs), click the Unsubscribe post link below after leaving your RSVP comment.

What to bring: Bring business cards, a pen/pencil (for writing notes on the back of business cards), and a self-made name tag if you've got one!

Tech Ranch Austin Tour

Attendees are welcome to swing over to the nearby Tech Ranch Austin start-up accelerator. Learn about their work with local start-ups, and how door64 and Tech Ranch are collaborating. They are located just off 183. The tour starts at 12:45pm. Here's the address (print a map, if you need to):

Tech Ranch Austin, 2311 W. Rundberg Lane, Suite 200, Austin, TX 78758 [Map] -- Make sure to print out the map so you'll know how to get there!

All-star Java/Oracle developer, Tom Kane, will be in attendance!

He recently relocated to Austin following a 4-month world tour including the Trans-Siberian Railway from Beijing to Moscow.

Tom blames the facebook "is" for all this talking about himself in the third person. He's actually quite modest when he's not job hunting.

I will be at the coffee hour.

My background is software engineering; I'm looking to talk with people in the IT department of various companies. Specifically this week, I would like to connect with someone at UT's Applied Research Laboratories. They posted a job for which I would be an excellent fit.

My business card makes a very suitable nametag, so I'll be sporting that. See you there!
