Fall has finally arrived. A lot of southerners lovingly call this “football weather”, because it is just cold enough to require long sleeves but not the kind of icy feel of December. The afternoons tend to climb in the low to mid-80s, so versatile wardrobe selections have to be added to the daily routine. My [...]
We are going to BarCamp Nashville 2008 October 18 at the Sommet Center in downtown Nashville.
BarCamp Nashville is an open-source gathering of technology enthusiasts who come together for one weekend to share what they know and learn what they don’t. It is an intense event with discussions, demos and interaction from attendees.
