Hi, folks! As many of you know, the first ICT4Drinks<https://www.flickr.com/search/?sort=relevance&text=ict4drinks> Seattle event was recently (and very successfully!!) held, hosted by our lovely, generous guests in town from DC, Wayan Vota<https://twitter.com/wayan_vota> and Merrick Schaefer<https://twitter.com/unimps>. Given the fantastic turnout, enthusiasm before, during, and after the event, and much recognition and expression that Seattle needs more (and regular) ICTD events, I'm spearheading the effort to make and keep ICT4Drinks Seattle (and other technology & development events, such as potential TechSalons<http://technologysalon.org/>, in Seattle) a regular event. (I already have a number of people on-board to help me (thank you in advance!), but please do let me know if you'd like to participate as well - the more, the merrier.) To make sure you're invited to upcoming ICT4Drinks Seattle (and possibly other ICT4D-related events), please sign-up here<http://eepurl.com/VfMjn>. I promise not to abuse the privilege and spam you - the list will be for event invites only. And please feel free to pass this email and link onto those people and lists you think would be interested. More information on the next ICT4Drinks Seattle is coming soon - I'm trying to get one organized before summer commences and people disperse - shooting for finals week. Looking forward!
