I just got back from the CTCNet conference (of Community Technology Center folks). A very committed group of people who are dedicating their time, energy, and talent to help spread access to technology. Congratulations to all who are part of that movement.
Summer has arrived here and any prior complaints about weather are now withdrawn :-). I hope it's as nice where you all are.
A few links below.
