Best game ever
Maybe a little late now that we're out of the election season, but still awesome.

LincVolt - Repowering the American Dream - About LincVolt
I saw the LincVolt earlier this week at the conference I was at, and it was really impressive --- it drives around and you can't even hear the noise.
Pretty impressive....and it's great to see that sort of inspiration.

Is President-Elect Obama a Geek?
One of the great issues of our time is whether or not President-Elect Obama Is a Geek.
I'm not sure if I could go that far -- but he's certainly pop-culture savvy and savvy with technology.
I figure the real test will be if there are any stories about him going to see the new Star Trek film when it comes out....

An impressive start
One of the things that I love about seeing Change.gov is that it's a sign that President-Elect Obama is going to use the skills that he proved throughout his campaign in organizing -- especially in the age of the internet and mobile phone -- in his new job.

CONvergence in the press... in October?!?
It's Halloween season, which is certainly a High Holiday for people that like to dress up in costumes, or attend science fiction conventions like CONvergence. So perhaps it's not surprising to see a reference to the convention show up in the St Paul Pioneer Press.
And seeing this sort of thing is exactly why we have this event -- to provide an environment that lets people do things like this, and not just for one weekend in July, but all year around.
And speaking of CONvergence....
It's official. We are going ahead with CONvergence beings a four day event permanently starting next year. We're very appreciative of all of the feedback and comments that we have -- so we can identify ways to make the four day convention as successful as possible, and make CONvergence continue to serve as a gathering point for our community.
We're looking for new concom members and volunteers -- ane one of the goals for our first concom meeting, on November 2nd, at 2:00 PM at the Sheraton Bloomington -- is to get new people engaged and involved. The organization lives and depend on excited and committed volunteers. So if you're interested, please join us.
There's a Facebook Event if you want a reminder and use Facebook.

Coverville
I've subscribed and have been listening to Coverville for the last month or so. It's got a great concept -- a podcast that plays covers of various songs. It's a great way to get a variety of music.
Definitely recommend subscribing to it!
