The Week in DC Tech: April 28th Edition
It's another busy albeit rainy week in Washington, DC with a lot of interesting tech events and happy hours taking place. We had a hard time deciding which events to check out this week, but finally narrowed it down to the ones below. As always, you can check out everything happening this week in tech at DC Tech Events.
Hope to see you out this week!
Tuesday
7:00 - 9:00 pm
Dorkbot DC: This is one of the dorkier meetups happening in the city, so if that's your bag - or machine to machine (M2M) communication or RepRap is - swing on over to GW University for this month's Dorkbot meeting.
Wednesday
7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Drupal Lab: Have a burning question about how to get a Drupal module properly configured or want to share a glory (or war) story about that last Drupal site you built? Then come on out for the April Drupal Lab and talk shop with other Drupalers.
6:30 pm
DC New Media Technology: We hear this networking/happy hour event is a great place to talk about new media, social networking, and all that is web 2.0 with a bunch of other people in the field. This will be our first time out to this event, and we're pretty psyched about it.
Saturday
5:00 pm
DC Rollergirls Championship: For a little weekend fun, come out for the DC Rollergirls championship match. Haven't heard of them? The photos should peak your interest : )
Come Out for Dorkbot Tomorrow, We'll Be There
Monthly Chance to Geek Out with the Best of 'Em

Tomorrow is the monthly Dorkbot DC meetup, a get together for artists, designers, engineers, and others in DC who are interested in, essentially, cool electronics projects. Jeff and I will be there, and we're hoping to bring some other people from our team.
Two interesting presentations are on the docket for tomorrow. I'm really looking forward to hearing Gareth Branwyn talk about his profile on Jack Parsons - a pioneer in America rocketry with a controversial personal life - that appeared in the last issue of MAKE magazine. Tom Lee will also be talking about how you can get wifi for your Arduino for about $10 and bit of time spent tinkering.
The details:
