Jun 5, 2009: Beer and Blog - Official opening of patio season! at Green Dragon Bistro & Brewpub

While we've had a couple of days on the patio, this Friday marks the official opening of patio season. We'll be on the patio every Friday until the sun don't shine. This calls for a celebration!! We're talking about rolling out some bright green astro turf. Busting out the baby pool with some lawn chairs around it. Squirtguns (of course). And some games like ring toss.

May 24, 2009: Impromptu Digital, Twitter Barn Raising CubeSpace Benefit Party at Whiffies at Whiffie's Fried Pies

I was exchanging some direct messages this morning with Gregg aka @whiffies after my earlier CubeSpace post, and he is generously offering to do an old fashioned barn raising for CubeSpace this evening sometime around 11pm at the Whiffie's pie cart on Hawthorne and 12th. He has sweet and savory pies left over from last night along with lemonade and iced tea. He's willing to donate all of the proceeds from the evening to CubeSpace. Don't be late, we only have about 40 pies! We're also looking for a DJ who wants to come out and entertain us for the evening for a good cause. Ping me if you are interested. Here are the details: Time: Sometime after 11PM. Look for a tweet from @whiffies later tonight for a more exact start time. Location: Food Carts on Hawthorne and 12th Come hang out & buy a pie or some lemonade in support of CubeSpace

May 15, 2009: Beer and Blog at Green Dragon Bistro & Brewpub

I love being the Portland Chapter Beer and Blog Provost. I LOVE IT. I really, really do. Except, momentarily, maybe not right this second. Right now, you see, I am a wee sad to be your Official Provost. It means I am ineligible to win the most excellent beer-related loot we have ever had to give away: 2 VIP tickets to the Portland International Beer Festival in July, courtesy of GoTime.com. Yes, really. But wait! There's more! These two tickets for the Portland International Beer Festival, which is scheduled for July 17-19 in the North Park Blocks of the Pearl District, includes the following goodies and privileges: * Unlimited entry/re-entry all weekend * VIP express entry (no waiting in line) * Commemorative festival glass (beer mug & shot glass) * A premium festival shirt * 15 beer tickets each Generous prize package, I'd say! GoTime.com is a Seattle-based outfit with a sweet (free) iPhone app that tracks hundreds of detailed happy hour listings and nightlife discounts in the Portland area. All you have to do for your chance to win is put your Beer and Blog Network username in the proverbial hat this Friday at the Green Dragon. There may even be an actual hat, I don't know, but I do know names will be accepted starting at 4pm and the name of a very, very lucky Beer and Blogger will be drawn at 6pm. Don't have a Beer and Blog username yet? No-problemo! Just show up this Friday and one of the usual Portland Chapter suspects (read: Justin, Kelly, Christine or myself) will enroll you. Maybe you tried to register online for the Beer and Blog network but couldn't get in? That's because our online network requires offline registration. Here's the reasoning behind that: We want everyone in the network to be a real person, with a true interest in the health and viability of the idea behind Beer and Blog: bloggers helping bloggers over beer. With a free, online Beer and Blog membership you can communicate with any member of the Beer and Blog family, from any Beer and Blog chapter, as well as chime in on discussions concerning your local chapter. Most importantly, we want your Beery and Bloggy input on upcoming presentation ideas, field trips, and the like, and what better way to collect opinions then to create a gated online community! Seriously. So if you're not already registered, get registered at this Friday's Beer and Blog for your chance to win the goodies generously donated by GoTime. I only ask that the winner let me briefly hold the commemorative festival glass and remind me how much I love being the Portland Beer and Blog Chapter's Provost. Because I really do. =)

May 20, 2009: Lunch 2.0 at WebVisions at Oregon Convention Center

WebVisions, yes the conference, will be hosting a Lunch 2.0 at the Oregon Convention Center during their day of workshops, May 20. Important to note, you can come to Lunch 2.0 even if you're not attending the conference. Attend WebVisions if you want to: "Discover the future of Web design, user experience and business strategy for three days of mind-melding on what's new in the digital world. Get a glimpse into the future, along with practical information that you can apply to your Web site, company and career." This will be the first Portland Lunch 2.0 hosted by a conference, and it should be an interesting mix of conference attendees, many from out of town, and Portlanders. This crowd mix should provide some interesting conversation, as well as an opportunity to network outside your normal crowd. Lunch 2.0 is a Valley phenomenon that you can read about at lunch20.com, and we're putting a PDX stamp on it. You can follow all things Portland Lunch 2.0 an the Silicon Florist. Are you vegan or vegetarian? Please leave a comment so we can plan food accordingly. Thanks.
