| CodeAway Shirts Available from the Militant Geek T-Shirt Shop Starting at $11.99 |
CodeAway events are a great opportunity to meet some incredibly bright people, get valuable feedback, and have some fun. Again, our June event is on the 9th and I hope to see you there!
If you’re looking for another great Salt Lake area event check out the Utah Tech Spotlight tomorrow, May 18th. The spotlight company will be Control 4. Control 4 makes home automation gizmos that make turning your lights on from your driveway (or someone’s on the other side of the world) as easy as possible. For more information and to RSVP go to Utah Tech Spotlight:
Date: Friday, May 18th Time: 3:00 - 4:00 Location: Bohemian Brewery And Grill (94 East and 7200 South, right off of State Street, SLC)
I hope to stick around after the event and grab a bratwurst so come for the networking, stay for the Czech.

We had plenty of Engineering Green, some talk, some work (I think only Matt really got any work done) and played some Nintendo DS (MarioKart and Big Brain Academy).
The coolest part is that Matt finished the CodeAway t-shirts. You can see and order them here:

Last mention of Seth Godin on this blog was while we were attempting to convince him to come to the Wasatch Front. Well, we did it! Seth will be speaking at the Salt Palace Thursday, May 24. The event runs from 1-4pm and should be a great time for everyone involved.
