We’ve looking for a couple of people to help (volunteer!) with coverage of the state, specifically in Southern and Eastern parts of the state. If you’re interested in writing, and can write short, concise pieces about geek things in Vermont, let us know!
Areas that we’re looking to write about are pretty diverse: anything from literature to film, science, technology, history, photography, music, science fiction, fantasy, writers, Champ, related events and more. (Generally, if it’ll appeal to the geek community, we’re interested)
If you’ve got something that you want us to talk about, email us at GeekMtnState@gmail.com or follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/geekmtnstate

An RSS feed would be nice.
D’oh! We’ll work on setting something up.
Hi Andrew, I’m an Aussie who fell in love with VT on a few trips there. So much so that I’ve written a Sci-Fi/fantasy book set around Putney VT. It’s called DWARG IN THE SEVENTH DIMENSION – THE AGGIE KELLOR EXPERIENCE, a story of an entity from the non physical world. I’ve just put it out as an ebook with Amazon.com and the book goes into print late November. Who knows, it may end up being bigger than Harry Putter, er Henry Potter, er, you know, that little guy with the glasses and broom. May I send you a copy for your perusal? I enjoy reading your blogs and admire your enthusiasm in promoting Vermont (in all things). Regards Tony Lourensen
A public shared Google Calendar would be a great addition to the site. We could add that publicly shared calendar to our own calendars in Google, Outlook, or any calendar tool that works with Google Calendar. Getting a list of events on the day they happen makes it hard to plan in advance for these geek events, so seeing an entire month calendar would be very helpful. You can also embed the calendar into a WordPress page, so everyone can see the event list.
Thanks for compiling the event lists!
That’s something that we’ve considered, but the problem is simply the time that we have avaliable to us, unfortunately. If we can get someone as a dedicated volunteer that can manage it, I think we’d be over the moon.
