Very busy here -- we're making a special Newport section for the crowds expected this weekend for the U.S. Women's Open Championship golf tournament. But I had to blog this...

The first town-hall meeting sponsored by Providence Geeks looks really interesting -- the folks behind the statewide "wi-fi cloud" project are slated to speak and answer questions from the public downtown after work tomorrow (or today, if you're reading this on Wednesday).

The R.I. Wireless Innovation Networks (RI-WINS) Town Hall speakers include:

* Bob Panoff, RI-WINS Program Director

* Donald Stanford, Chair of the Business Innovation Factory and President of Stanford Scientific

* Tracy Emerton Williams, Rhode Island’s Chief Information Officer

Details:

The RI-WINS Town Hall is) open to the public, and will start at 5pm on Wednesday, June 21 at AS220 (115 Empire Street, Providence, RI) and end at 6pm. The speakers will present short talks on their involvement in and perspective on the RI-WINS project, and will then field questions from attendees. If you have any questions, please contact Brian Jepson (bjepson AT gmail DOT com) ...

If you want to see the future, drop by. (It's free.)
