Harvard Free Culture, ROFLCon, and Public Radio Exchange Proudly Present...
INFORMATION SUPERHIGHWAY TWO
A Gathering Of Boston Tech
November 29th, 2008, 8:00 PM - 12:00
Berkman Squared, 50 Church Street, Cambridge MA
Boston is full of cool Internet people. Why aren't they meeting each other?
INFORMATION SUPERHIGHWAY is Boston's monthly party gathering hackers, activists, artists, designers, nonprofits, startups, academics and general geekery to hang out and connect with one another.
*No agenda, no "networking," no presentations. Just beverages, food, ideas and cool people.
*Best of all the price is free, just like your courtesy black helicopter flight to A Secure Undisclosed Location
*This time: come out and meet Boston's Secret Masters of Hidden Hackspace, Homebrew Mad Science, and Cyber Revolution
*Also: hear about our scheme to rent a decommissioned missile silo. And how you can too, on less than $10 bucks a month. (No, seriously).
With Featured Guests and Organizations:
*Jason Bobe, DIYBio
*Meredith Garniss and Andrew Sempere, Willoughby and Baltic
*Alex Hornstein, NUBLabs, FabLab
*David Weinberger, Joho the Blog, The Berkman Center For Internet and Society
*Jake Shapiro, Public Radio Exchange
*Jason Scott, TextFiles
*Matt Lee, The Free Software Foundation
Also Sponsored By Information Superhighway Alumni:
Beth Coleman and Kevin Driscoll (CMS), Mel Chua (OLPC), Steve Garfield (Founder, Boston Media Makers), Nate Aune, Brian Del Vecchio and Jon Pierce (Betahouse), Brett Stilwell (Pecha Kucha Boston)

This is 8pm, not 8am, right?
Yep, sho' is. 8 PM to midnight.
That sounds like fun--I hope to see you there. But not at hypothetical future meetings in a decommissioned missile silo, ok?
I wish I lived in Boston. Only got to visit to speak at MIT last weekend. Miss it already.
This looks like loads of fun - thanks for arranging it!
This seems like it's going to be lots of fun.
