Hello,
Anyone who does anything should post it at

I am presenting on both days of a weekend for InfoCamp in Seattle, which is
a small conference (700 people?) where people in information sciences tell
stories in layman terms to fans, mostly students and people interested in
popular science. There are not many places where a conference like this
would work but it does work in Seattle because of lots of people working in
software and science in a small city, and because there is an established
community of several thousand people who dependably attend layman science
talks for entertainment.
At the conference I will be training people to use Wikipedia and telling
them to use Wikipedia as platform for disseminating ideas.
This is happening the second weekend of October, so I likely will do
something later also.
