The Community-Driven Breakfast for Technology-Minded People.
Each month attendees congregate over bacon, eggs and plenty of coffee to discuss topics like social media, digital marketing, design, programming, and ways to better their communities.
Join 'The Geeks' for the February Traverse City Geek Breakfast! February's Breakfast will be on Thursday, February 21st at the Omelette Shoppe on Front St (near the Northwestern Michigan College & Jimmy John's).
Stop by anytime and leave for work when you need to! These are very casual meet-ups for tech-minded people in the TC area.
A Geek Breakfast is a monthly community-driven meeting for local (and visiting) technology-minded people. Each month attendees congregate over bacon, eggs and plenty of coffee to discuss topics like social media, digital marketing, design, programming, and ways to better their communities.
The first geek breakfast was held in December 2007 in Nashville, TN.
The Three Rules of Geek Breakfast (almost as easy as Fight Club)
1. Everyone is invited, attendance is free (excluding food, beverage and gratuity).
2. Pictures, audio and video should be licensed under Creative Commons and tagged using “yourcitynamegeekbreakfast” and “geekbreakfast”. Please add them to the Geek Breakfast Flickr Group.
3. Geek Breakfasts shall never be sponsored. If a company approaches you about sponsorship opportunities recommend they sponsor local unconferences instead, like a barcamp or podcamp. It’s important to note that if the breakfast gets sponsored you’ll wind up with many people turning up for a free meal, rather than being there to contribute to the conversation.
