[wplug] Summer Slam - Tomorrow, 5-8 PM

[Vance Kochenderfer]

Summer Slam is an event organized by the Pittsburgh Technology
Council to get the various Pittsburgh user groups together.  It
is being held at Finnigan's Wake near PNC Park.  Here's how PTC
puts it:

  Developers, leave your code at the office; DBAs, forget Oracle
  and SQL for one night; CIOs, you can worry about the information
  technology audit tomorrow.  It's time for Pittsburgh user groups
  to unite!  For the eighth consecutive year the summer socials of
  many Pittsburgh user groups -- including Java, .NET, Oracle,
  SQL, SharePoint and many others -- combine for a unique night of
  networking and fun.  Learn about the benefits and challenges of
  each technology through informal conversations with peers.
  Enjoy free appetizers, raffle prizes and a cash bar.  Other
  participating user groups (tentative) include Coding Dojo, IIBA,
  IRMAP, ISSA, PES, PghBOUG, PghDW Group, PITCFUG, PMI's IT SIG,
  PRKMC, STC, WPEAF, WPLUG, WSMQUG and WSUG.  Attend and interact
  with your peers to learn the meaning of each acronym.

You do need to pre-register (no cost).  See the page on the WPLUG
wiki <http://www.wplug.org/wiki/Summer_Slam_VIII> for more
details and a link to the registration page.

A note for those who may be seeking work - the event is typically
crawling with recruiters, so might be a good opportunity.
