[hackerspaces] Press

[David Powell]

I don't know about all the rest of the spaces but it seems that the
wired.com article gave us the boost we needed to get started. I had 3
potential new members contact me and they are coming to our meeting on
Sunday.

That brings me to this next thought. We should create a press release
that can easily be shared with all the big technology news channels.
CNET comes to mind and I'm sure there are a bunch of others.

In order to get this started I would like if you guys would take
photos of your groups interacting with each other either in your
hackerspace or in your meeting location if you are just getting
started. Then write a little paragraph about what is going on in the
photo and provide details about where that location is and what the
name is of the organization.

The thought is to spread the word that Hackerspaces are poping up
everywhere and not just is a few cities.

I'm not sure of the best way for us to collect these photos and
paragraphs. I guess we could setup a page on the www.hackerspaces.org
wiki. Does anyone have a better idea?
