March meeting this week!

When: 7-9pm Thu March 21, 2013
Where: Iovation
Who: Gabrielle Roth
What: Autovacuum and You

Autovacuum’s like a Roomba, right? You just turn it on and it does all
the work for you. Well, not quite – for one, your pets can’t ride
around on it – and occasionally it may get stuck in a (figurative)
corner. In this talk, we’ll discuss vacuum, analyze, and their
daemonic counterparts: how to adjust them to perform appropriately*,
and perhaps more importantly, what the heck are they actually doing?

This is a beginner-to-intermediate level talk, but you will learn
something new about vacuuming, regardless.**

Our meeting will be held at Iovation, on the 32nd floor of the US
Bancorp Tower at 111 SW 5th (5th & Oak). It’s right on the Green &
Yellow Max lines. Underground bike parking is available in the parking
garage; outdoors all around the block in the usual spots. No bikes in
the office, sorry!

Building security will close access to the floor at 7:30.

After-meeting beer location: Huber’s, the oldest bar in Portland. See you there!
