Welcome to the official kickoff for the 2009 Community Technology Meetups! Each month we share ideas, innovative curriculum and resources for Community Technology folks in the SF Bay Area. We believe the CTC community benefits by coming together to meet each other and build partnerships. With this in mind, we are thrilled to launch a new and improved format for our Meetups.

Based on feedback and suggestions, we have three tracks, all of which relate to Community Technology:
1) Digital Literacy: Topics such as sharing lesson plans and online job search techniques
2) Community Media: Topics such as digital storytelling and streaming radio shows
3) Lab Management: Topics such as maintaining computers and organizing your lab
