"I think the SL idea excludes those without access to computers, and frankly that's not fair" I didn't convene this contest, but how's about we each use this forum to submit our ideas without commenting negatively on other people's submissions? Kat…

This idea will require a bit of you need to pay to play... Contestants put up ~$10 each and submit Google AdWords copy intended to recruit new members and the search term(s) they want to put it against (e.g., "Hawaii Technology"). The contest organ…

Like my previous idea, this one isn't a direct method of acquiring new members, but an indirect one of attracting them through publicity. Hold a reverse million-dollar pixel contest, with the pixels filled in with the logos consisting of Hawaii-bas…

As a way of easing the implementation of the idea, instead of holding a full-fledged contest for a fully-baked application (with all the prizes and cooperative agreements that would entail, in addition to the actual work put in by teams), perhaps th…

No Ultimate, sigh. Truth be told, I'm not even very good at throwing an Aerobie, I just really like it :)

When I was about to graduate from college, I was sitting in my dorm room feeling totally clueless about what comes next when I saw my Aerobie propped against the wall. So I looked them up and emailed them begging for a job... and there I was for my first year out of college!

You an Aerobie fan?

Hi Gabe,
it was nice to meet you at the GUI meetup yesterday. Thanks for the sushi :)

Hi Gabe,
Unfortunately, I'm no pro at GUI (just a novice programmer) and the CG imaging I've done aren't professional. Thanks for the invite though, I will keep it in mind :)

Hey Gabe, how's life in NY? ... I feel like I haven't been on TechHui in forever.

We used french.yabla to learn a bit of the language before going to Madagascar. Its a great app - easily the best language learning site I've seen. I also discovered a great new artist while watching the videos.

Hey Gabe and Truman,

Sorry to jump into the conversation but I couldn't help notice that you guys were talking about a Spanish website! lomastv.com looks really cool and it is a great way to practice your Spanish AND create awareness about the different accents that we have (I am a native Spanish speaker).

Thank you for the great find!

Cheers,

Damian

Hey Gabe, I just watched the demo video on lomastv.com. That girl IS spunky! I can see why people like her a lot and ask to see more videos by her. I like her, too.

I'm thinking to cancel the Jelly this week due to a lack of interest. Let me know if you want to meet up for lunch instead.
