Hello All,
I'm Max the New Wikipedia Regional Ambassador to New England and I wanted to invite you to the event that's currently being hosted in Boston this weekend. It's the Wikipedia in Higher Education Summit hosted at Simmons College: http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_in_Higher_Education_Summit . Mostly we are focusing on how Wikipedia and Higher Education mesh, but the topics are more diverse and there is even a Keynote by Sue Gardner.
Hope to see, I'll be here all weekend. Max Klein Wikipedia Regional Ambassador to New England +15108426295 maxklein@berkeley.edu
Ha! I missed this b/t when I drafted that email and when I sent it :-)
Max knows better than I do -- if he says no reg. is necessary, you can just show up to what interests you.
Mad props to Simmons for hosting such a great and open event. Some other people you may have met who will be there: Richard from WM-NYC, Katie Filbert from Wiki DC, Inc; and Phoebe Ayers, WMF trustee from Davis...
Also: the Archivist of the US is giving the opening keynote tomorrow. He really knows where his towel is... you should come to that if you can.
SJ.
