Today’s digital preservation event has been pushed back a month. Yes, it means our aging, fading floppy disks will get a few weeks older! But it’ll mean better preparation and a better experience for all, so please join us on September 24th for an afternoon of retrocomputing, archiving, and bad 90s techno…
Tuesday, August 23rd @ 7pm.
Anything Android! If you own an Android phone/device or even if you are only considering maybe buying an Android phone or tablet, join us! Discussion will range from, your favorite app, battery saving techniques, how to root, or anything anyone wants to share. We welcome all ranges of experience and knowledge.
Time for another open shop at i3 Detroit. We will be open for tours, project help and more starting at 7p until the last member passes-out.
A number of projects will be worked on including the Podcast Trailer which is getting some much needed roof insulation.
Come say hi, bring a project or throw your hand in to help with someone else’s project.
Stephen Clark, WXYZ News Anchor, stopped by with his wife to customize a floor plank for a home remodel he is working on.
We used the laser cutter to etch the following quote into a plank; “If you’re lucky enough to live on a lake… then you’re lucky enough – The Clark Family, Summer 2011”
Clark even contributed a donation to the space in addition to the fee for the laser cutter time. What a stand-up guy.
Friend of i3 Detroit, Nick Gaydos, is putting on Ignite IT tomorrow at the Detroit Marriott. It is tied to a local IT convention but the public is welcome to the Ignite talks. Check it out.
Ignite IT is an afternoon of information systems themed presentations with a twist.
Speakers have exactly five minutes to tell us their story, enlighten us, or simply inspire—backed by twenty slides auto-advancing every fifteen seconds.
Quick, fun, and to the point!
Our first event, Ignite IT will be held as part of AMCIS 2011 in Detroit, Michigan.
Mark your calendars for 4pm Friday, August 5th, 2011 at the Marriott in Downtown Detroit, Michigan.
Detroit Marriott at the Renaissance Center 400 Renaissance Dr Detroit, MI 48243
