I just got back from my first Portland Web Innovators meeting -- met a great crew of people. The main topic was a free-form discussion lead by Jason and Matt about their experience working on a side project (Unthirsty, a sweet happy hour finder) that they essentially used instead of a resume to help land their current gigs at Instrument.
Here are some of the people I met:
- Jason Glaspey, Unthirsty co-conspirator
- Matt King, Unthirsty co-conspirator
- Justin Lewis, Interactive Director at Instrument
- Adam DuVander, creator of wifiPDX
- Justin Kistner, Interactive Manager at Nemo Design (& wrote a full summary of the meeting)
- Kevin Scaldeferril, programmer at Yahoo
- Sean R., a Geek With a Laptop
