[hackerspaces] Startup publicity

[Mitch Altman]

I always say that Noisebridge is part of a hackerspace movement.  That's not always picked up by the interviewer, though.  The CNET story <http://news.cnet.com/8301-27080_3-10405255-245.html> didn't really pick up on other hackerspaces, much, or hackerspaces.org.  (But, like you said, people will type "hackerspace" into their search engine of choice.)

 

I'll be giving a talk about starting your own hackerspace at Codebits (in Lisbon) on Thursday, and doing a panel with Bre and Jens in Singapore (at Neoteny Singapore Camp 1) the following week.  I'm hoping this will create more buzz for hackerspaces and hackerspaces.org.

 

Mitch.
