Freeside - Atlanta Hacker Space

Presented at Summercon 2009, June 6, 2009, 4:15 p.m. (30 minutes).

Within two months of our announcement to form an Atlanta hacker space, over 50 people came together to help make it a reality. Freeside (http://www.FreesideAtlanta.org/) is on track to sign a warehouse lease this summer. This talk will cover how we got organized, how we planned for funding, some lessons we learned from other hacker spaces, and how Freeside will distinguish itself from the other spaces popping up all over the country.

Presenters:

• Eater
  During the day, Eater is a fashion critic for Google, Inc. By night, he's a tavern connoisseur and technological guerrilla revolutionary. He enjoys bacon, data center design, and zombie movies.
