The Regulars

Let’s convoy to San Antonio soon for a Regulars Field Trip to Rackspace’s awesome HQ, aka The Castle. (Btw, you might also read Rackspace’s post about the Patriot Act.)

We need to pick a first or third Friday and give them a little advance notice. 

We can rap about this Friday at Mozart’s or anytime on Twitter. Just use the hashtag #regularing. Let’s pick a time for Rackspace and also build  our wish list for future Regulars Field Trips.

Sometime soon, maybe in July, let’s focus a Friday morning on the topic of Bitcoin.

Of course, the usual hanging out and helping each other can occur like normal as well. Interested folks can also gather around a few tables for a nice deep dive on this topic — what Bitcoin represents, how it works, and what it signifies for the future.

Whom should we invite? Please share ideas either here in the comments or on Twitter by including me and/or the hashtag #regularing in the tweet.

For now, you might enjoy this Khan Academy series.

Thanks, y’all.

Chris of Austin Independent Radio hung out with us Friday. In a good discussion that ranged from startup business models to Austin’s evolution, Chris asked us a provocative question, “Can you name five bands new to Austin in the last five years?” It stumped many of us, which didn’t surprise him. He reportedly asks that question a lot and has built AIR partly to help bridge this gap. We then rapped about newer excellent local artists, bands, venues, and more. Please give AIR a listen and get ready for more regularing at night. Thanks, y’all.

Last Friday a few of us had a great conversation about Bill Hicks, George Carlin, Lenny Bruce, the higher-ed bubble, the web disrupting the factory model of K-12 education, and much more. The discussion was densely packed, multi-threaded, and fun.

Feel free to share here any links or thoughts related to recent Regular talks that you’ve enjoyed.

I hope to see y’all again this Friday. Thanks, everybody.
