Tahoe Silicon Mountain, a network of entrepreneurs and professionals who live and work in the Tahoe-Truckee area, is pleased to welcome Mary L. Gorden to present at Mountain Minds Monday: “The History of Computing Through the Eyes of One Woman's Career”
Mary L. Gorden, author of "Life Without Ceilings: A Woman’s Career in Computers" will give us an insider’s view of the role women played in computing throughout her 35-year career in the field.
Using events from her career, Gorden will describe the change in attitude towards both computers and women in technology, how some new approaches today are really old ideas using newer technology, and how and why the numbers of women in computing have changed over time.
Mountain Minds Monday will be held on Monday, August 13th from 6-8 pm at Pizza on the Hill, in Tahoe Donner located at 11509 Northwoods Blvd., Truckee. Pizza and salad are available and we use a pay-what-you-can model ($5 minimum). Before and after the presentation, there will be time for networking.
The event will also be livestreamed and available online as it happens on YouTube: bit.ly/YouTubeTSM

STC DC Baltimore Social Media Survey 2011Viqui Dill
This presentation will review the survey, its results, and let you know just how much we love our face-to-face meetings and our shiny Intercom magazine.
At last year’s STC Summit, the buzz about Social Media was hot. As a result, our Washington DC/Metro Baltimore Chapter created the position of Social Media Manager and began to tweet, post, link, and upload our news and announcements.
When we got little or no response to all this flurry and effort, we were left scratching our heads and asking “What do the members really want?”
So somebody had the bright idea of asking them. We took a Social Media Survey. We asked the Chapter membership to rate and prioritize all 13 of our Social Media channels and tell us what they like. The results will surprise you and encourage you to gradually introduce your chapter members to the newer, sexier forms of Social Media while still holding on to old and proven methods of communication.
This is a presentation that I did to a networking group in Hamilton on March 27, 2012 for small businesses. The objective was to give them a broad idea of why they should look at social media.
