For some, this week marks Spring Break. But here in Portland, this marks the beginning of the summer event season. And the stark realization that there are more geek events coming to town than you could ever hope to attend.
This weekend, however, is an easily digestible precursor---an appetizer, if you will---to the geeky madness that will soon overwhelm Portland. So, it might be a good opportunity for you to dip your toe in the water. Or, to carry on the analogy, to get a taste of what the summer holds.
Here's what's in store for those brave enough to venture out, this weekend:

Don't forget about the Dorkbot meeting on Sunday :-)
They have Cathy Swider - Using LEGO Mindstorm NXT robots with students to create art; Ward Cunningham - What If Bacteria Designed Computers?; and David Frech - Bootstrap yourself into conviviality by writing your own Forth

Oh man. Really? I was planning to rest on Sunday. ;)
Dawn, I was just coming to add a comment mentioning that myself. Thanks for the nod in our general direction. ;~)
