Hackerspaces: Making, Sharing, Hacking and Doing Things
Joe Bowser

Bob McCartney from Recall http://recall.com/ will do a short presentation on Recalls data protection and information management services.

Joe Bowser will then talk about hackerspaces in general and specifically VHS , the Vancouver Hacker Space http://vancouver.hackspace.ca/doku.php. The hackerspace movement is a relatively new movement of collaborative spaces throughout the world. These spaces, called "YMCA for geeks", are places where Makers, Crafters, Hackers and other people who have knowledge to share and projects to do can come together to work on them in a collaborative atmosphere.
