Help Me Promote Utah Tech Events

UPDATE 8/14/2007 — This has all mostly changed.

There’s a booming meetup community in Utah — user-groups, techies, geeks, entrepreneurs, bloggers and all sorts of other types of people getting together to talk shop, talk dirt, or just talk.

But getting a clear picture of who is meeting… and when… is pretty hard.

So, to try and help, I have created a group on Eventful called “Utah Geek Meets“ I found that there’s a Google Calendar called “Utah Tech Events” being managed (in true open-source style) by several people around the valley including Matt and Jordy, and it attempts to simply be a one-stop repository for the kind of things a geek in Utah would like to attend. I’m also now an admin for the calendar, too.

This group is technology agnostic, so a “Helping Your Dog Podcast” meetup would have the same weight as a “Business Case for PASCAL” group.

I NEED YOUR HELP
This isn’t my thing… I amit is, so-called, open-sourced it to the whole Utah Tech Community… so you gotta contribute if it’s going to live.

• Join Eventful (come on, just one more registration wont kill you) and then
• Or, if the fear of another login is too great, just email me your event information (robertmerrill AT gmail DOT com) with “Add to Eventful” “Event For Calendar” in the subject line and I will be your dutiful servant. I need title, description, place & time (begin & end)
• USE the Utah Tech Events calendar, either online, by RSS or by iCal/webcalendar.
• LINK to the Utah Geek Meets group Tech Events Calendar from your link-roll for publicity:

• PUBLISH the Utah Geek Meets Tech Events calendar on your blog/website for others to see. Just cut-and-paste this code into your website someplace.If you’re quite the hacker, consider this feedburner feed (ideal for mashups) or Get this widget (above) (cut to the code here).

Let’s get meeting, people!
