An update from the TC, lower level: BarCampWaterloo, StartupCampWaterloo, oh my

It has been 23 days since my last update! Wow does time fly. Figure I should update what has been going on in my little corner of the campus and of course mention for those that care, I finally got my blog up an running with Simplelog. Still monkeying around with the server settings and the template (it is the default template at the moment) but you can subscribe to that feed for things.
So the new job. Working with nine co-ops in a new space with a new job is pretty challenging. The co-ops are great, it is the change in all things but my main employer that is slowing me down a bit. That and the teething eight month old that sleeps in the nursery attached to my bedroom. There should be some really good things to post in the coming weeks so it should be interesting. As an added bonus I am now getting my head around MS Studio and Expression stuff—in a few months I will know with confidence which is better, Dreamweaver or Expression Web. Going into it I think it will be tie because you would use them in different situations. But anyway…
The other part of my spare time has been pulling together BarCampWaterloo5 for September 29th (a Saturday) from 11am-5pm in the Accelerator Centre. Yes Impact is the same day. The difference with BarCampWaterloo is that you can participate, the agenda is set by those in attendance, the goal is to share, learn, have fun, and you don’t need a suit. Oh, and its free.
After BarCampWaterloo is a StartupCampWaterloo on October 23rd at 6pm. This is going to be a little more like DemoCamp but focused on starting your own thing. The plans are still coming together for that one but I hope to have it all sorted out by BarCampWaterloo.
Not much else to report.
