Thursday Meetings at Berkman Blog

Tonight’s one of our good old tried-and-true grab bag nights. j has a presentation she’d like advice on, but this is also a great night for bringing your own conundrums, neat sites, etc. We haven’t done one of these in a while.

Upcoming meetings & events:

• August 7: Berkman needs the conference room so we’re planning a picnic! Since our last picnic kinda got rained out, let’s have some fun outside the HLS student center (Harkness Commons), which has a beach volleyball court, tables, etc. Berkman has a bocce set; we need someone to bring a volleyball. Bring your own food, tho if folks also want to bring snacks / sides / desserts to share that’s a bonus.
• At some point, we should take advantage of Berkman’s RockBand set and have a music party in lieu of a normal meeting.
• It’s getting to be time to have another dim sum gathering, too…
• See the Berkman Calendar for other upcoming Berkman stuff.
• Feel free to publicize related events here! Let Erica or j know, comment, or add them yourself if you have an editor account.

Tonight, blog group’s time slot conflicts with Tech Cocktail Boston, which many of our members like to attend. We recommend that you take advantage of this exciting event. RSVP early because it fills up quickly!

To some of us, social media is a means of self-expression. For others, it’s a way of getting a cause or product’s message out to a wider and more engaged audience. For some of us, social media is our job as well as the place where we play. What does it mean to be authentic in today’s version of the social web?

Instead of a meeting, let’s gather at outside the Hatch Shell on the Esplanade (near Charles St. station) to watch the Pops rehearse their 4th of July concert. Bring your picnic blanket, your own meal, and if you like snacks to share.

The latest word is that the concert itself isn’t going to start til around 8:30, but that the earlier the better in terms of getting there.

Look for j when you arrive - Erica has had something come up and won’t be able to be there.
