Geek Pride Hits Boston This Weekend 
 Posted by timothy on Wednesday March 29, @07:23PM
from the please-note-I-said-throngs-not-thongs. dept.
Academic head of the MIT Media Lab Alex Pentland and Eric S. Raymond
(ESR), software evangelist and straight-shooting author of some of the
Free software world's most influential essays, will be there. If you can
cough up zero dollars (or the equivalent in lire, pesos, krugerands,
galactic credits, etc.) and get to Boston on Friday (31st March) or
Saturday (1st April), you'll be well met at the 3rd annual Geek Pride
Festival.
