Net2 Local: New Groups!
Net Tuesdays or Net2 Local gatherings provide a chance to connect locally with all those interested in the intersection of social technologies and social change.
There are new groups forming every week: Join in!
NetSquared is teaming up with Sun Microsystems to create community hack days in conjunction with a series of recruiting events that Sun hosts called "Tech Days." Collaborate for Change Registration.
