Quantifying the Climb to Everest... and more

Details

Please join us on September 18th for another exciting evening of personal self-tracking stories, tools demonstrations, and amazing conversation.

We're happy to be hosted by our friends at the the Carney Center, where alcohol, food and beverage will be provided. Come to meet new people, check out new hands-on gadgets and tools, and learn from personal stories.

7 -7:30 pm HAPPY HOUR AND PRODUCT DEMONSTRATIONS

If you have a self-tracking project, gadget, app, or idea you'd like to share or demo, but you don't want to get up and talk about it, then the opening half hour is a perfect opportunity for you.

If you are making something useful for self-trackers – software, hardware, web services, or data standards – please contact the organizers to demo it during this time. We can provide you with a space for your demonstration.

7:30 pm – 9 pm IGNITE PRESENTATIONS

We are very excited to have Patrick McKnight, Ph.D. as our keynote speaker at this QS meetup, which will be focused on health and fitness. Patrick is a professor in psychology at George Mason University Professor with expertise in statistics and research methods. He will be describing his training for his upcoming climb of Mount Everest, and how he is using self quantification in the process of accomplishing this goal.

We are also in need of 1 or 2 other speakers so send a message to the organizers if you have a self quantification story that you would like to share.

9 - 10 pm SOCIAL TIME

Talk to the speakers, chat with new and old friends, ask other people what they're tracking, and generally hang out and have a great time.

Thank you and see you there!
