NetSquared: Now in San Antonio!
Monday, August 24th, 2009
In May 2008, I took the opportunity to independently brand my name and my skillset after my standard 8-5 job. So I attended regular networking meetups such as NetSquared Houston so I could build a name for myself. One of my goals was to bring NetSquared to San Antonio. A year later, I have done so. It was a low-key operation. I wanted to get started in the Net2 Austin group before that turned into a, bluntly, big waste of time for me (Net2 Austin is still running effective and strong. The “waste of time” was the almost bridge-burning attitude of some people when it came to involving San Antonio.), and I learned after AccessCamp especially that making initiatives for San Antonio while still in Houston amidst a great deal of professional politics was going to be a problem, so I held off on all other initiatives after that.

Get Equipped with NetSquared
Tuesday, May 13th, 2008
Once in awhile I’ll get things done in Houston. I know I’m pretty well known for my detest of it, but I figure since I spend (or try to spend) 5 days a week here, I might as well rock something in Houston.
For those of you not in Houston (or California), NetSquared is a gathering of people learning about information for nonprofit organizations. Given this is one of my important policies to move in San Antonio, what better thing to do than learn from the close network of Houstonians (tech people and more) listening to nonprofit-minded, business-minded folks. It was started by Ed Schipul of (surprisingly) Schipul Technologies and continued by other Schipulites. It’s also got some Pop Laboratorists(?), former and current, ready to get involved.
It meets once a month on a Tuesday, so if you’re around, you can be sure to make it. But if you’re not, and you’re in San Antonio, I’m pretty sure you know where I’ll go with this…
