Agenda

  • Crowd-sourcing Kris’ future round II
  • IdeaWave
  • From roughly 8-9p.m. I’ve invited Christopher Bowers, who will be offering at no cost his What’s Gone Well Today program with our group. I went through the session last night with the official advisory board and thought this would be a fun exercise for our group to try.
  • Any updates on the DIY dryer?
  • DIY clothing dresser; RFID door opener? motion activated door slides? How would the ideal dresser look and function? Perhaps larger with a bar with hanger for suits like an armoire?
  • Update on ASC
  • Canadians for an awesome internet
  • We need an ideas meeting logo!
  • I got a convenient travel laptop, help me come up with a clever hack to replace the lit logo on it
  • Projector and screen for IdeaWave.
    • NS just offered hers: TDP S25 projector (Pdf) and a InFocus SC-PD-80 screen. Issues to resolve:
      • 3.3M is max projection distance and
      • The retractable screen has no brackets, so need a way to mount the 19.5lb screen
    • LM just scored one as well
    • Hotel to offer 6’ screen at no cost
  • Personal DB project - KC
