Yes I know I never blog, I’m a terrible person The good news is that Tubes is rollin and soon you’ll be able to use it, bad news is that I can’t say when that’ll be.

I’d like to point out that an organization that I co-founded along with Adam Kalsey, called SacStarts, is hosting the first ever BarCamp Sacramento June 2nd and 3rd. We’ve got some fantastic sponsors already, and some pretty amazing tech people are signed up to participate. There is still room for more sponsors and still lots of room for presentations and workshops. BarCamps are typically very tech-programming-web-startup-related, but so far it looks like we’ll be the biggest food BarCamp ever, with presentations on roasting your own coffee, baking your own chocolate, and one of the most famous food/cooking bloggers is signed up to come. I have no idea what I’m going to present yet, but it’ll probably be related to Max/MSP, PD, 3D audio or something else that I don’t remember how to do.

Read more about BarCamp Sacramento, BarCamp in general (Wikipedia page), and SacStarts, and I hope you come and join us!

It’s time for another crazy Sac Geek Dinner, and this time it’s going to be in Folsom at Dos Coyotes on December 1st. Please RSVP via Upcoming.org so we know how many people to expect.

That’s right, there is a tech/startup scene in Sac and we like to eat. We’re going to do Chinese food at Peking Palace which is on Folsom Blvd between Watt and Bradshaw. Kalsey set up the Upcoming event, and here’s a Google map to the place. We’re planning on meeting at 7 PM and ordering a bunch of stuff to share. See you there!

I’ve been to all previous Sacramento Executive events, and there’s another one coming up September 20th in oldtown Sac. Everytime I’ve gone to these things I’ve met some really cool people, gotten lost in great conversations and ended up missing the food and drinks. No more I tell you! This time I’m making up for the lack of alcohol consumption, and any and all good food will be in my belly. Speaking of food take a look at the restaurant’s website. If you’re around the Sacramento area then you don’t want to miss this one, and you might even want to consider the trip if you’re in the Bay Area.

A lot of the investing and business community gathers at these events, and the Sacramento Executive events in particular. I think it’s because the only people that know about it are already involved somehow with investors or companies in the area. If you’re an entreprenuer looking for investors, management, advisors, etc, or an investor looking to find that special startup with crazy potential (like mine!), then get your ass to this party. Come to have a good time and meet people who might be able to help you, or people you might be able to help. I’ll be there, you can find me near the buffet table. Details and registration info are at the top of the front page at Sacramento Executive.

That was our first one and while it was a smallish crowd, we definitely had a great time. Adam also took pictures.

Adam Kalsey and I have arranged the first of many Sac Geek Dinners. Actually it’s going to be in Davis, but we’ll probably move it around because variety is the spice of life. Traditionally the Bay Area gets all the fun stuff, but that is no longer! Everybody is invited but be warned you will be surrounded by geekery. And please RSVP (comment) on this blog or send me an email so I can warn the restaurant if we anticipate a bigger crowd. There is free WiFi so bring your notebook if you want, and bring your beer goggles in case you want to put the computer away and have a good time. Watch this blog for more details!
