NON TECH: Auto Blog

Anyone who has had more than a couple of beers with me knows my only interests are:

1. Technology
2. Cars
3. Anything else with wheels

If you share number 2 then check out Auto Blog:
http://www.autoblog.com/

RSS Feed:

The author writes well and appears very independent – this is often not the case with
the mainstream US auto-magazines.

Similar to Enagadget there is a picture with every entry – this means scanning for
interesting posts is easy so keeping up to date is possible. Blogs like Scoble’s are
generally Ctrl-Shift-R – there is just too much to read!! OK this is freaky: I am
listening to a Bloggercon 3.0 podcast, and as I typed that last sentence Robert Scoble
said he needs to know if people think he publishes too much. That was weird, is Scoble
becoming omnipresent?

Tech Calendar for Nov/Dec 2004

This is somewhat scrappy and incomplete, but here is a stab at a calendar of Atlanta tech events for the next two months. Compared to this summer they are quiet months:

If you think any another groups should be included please send an email to calendar@dotnetworkaholics.com

Don’t forget that TechLinks is also a great reference for local user groups:

Atlanta Geek Dinner on Monday

Kirk is hosting another
Geek Dinner on Nov 15th
. These are great opportunities to network with fellow
.Net junkies.

Normally I would recommend everyone attend, but everyone should attend the Mobility
Atlanta SIG’s first meeting instead ;)

We need a calendar of Atlanta tech events! Watch this space.
