If you’ll be in the Dallas area on October 5th, join us for a meetup at The Great State Fair of Texas! There will be corn dogs and Chicken Fried Bacon (tastes amazing!), and of course Fried Green Tomatoes. Here are the deets:
Date: October 5th
Time: 1:00 PM
Meetup location: in front of Big Tex
We’ll meet in front of Big Tex at 1:00 PM, have some corndogs, then leave Big Tex around 1:30 PM. Make sure you follow my Twitter account to catch up with us if you miss the meet time! At 5:30 PM, we’ll head on over to the Chevorlet Main Stage to see Kelly Pickler (yes, we’re American Idol fans!).
Post a comment here if you’ll be able to make it. I’m looking forward to meeting new friends and seeing some old friends!
UPDATE: During the meetup, we’ll also be shooting shows for GeekBrief.TV at the Smart Home located at the Women’s Museum. The plan as of today is to start shooting at 2:00 PM.
UPDATE 2: John P, and Eli and Jad (developers of Woopra) will be at the meetup. They have FREE Woopra T-shirts for everyone, but you have to let them know what you want, otherwise you won’t get one! The shirts have a Woopra logo with one of these sayings under the logo:
Tag this.
Is Watching.
Nice Stats.
Make it Count.
F’ google
Email John P and let him know which one you want and your size. Since they’re running low, please let him know a second choice.

I will be there for sure. I am really looking forward to meeting my two fav tech people.

By the way… we do have a few small and medium Women’s sizes in the T-shirts for all the ladies! So don’t be shy if you want one. We’d love to hook you up with the extremely limited edition Woopra gear. :-)
