Nerds & Geeks

Yes, I have concluded that I am a nerd.  You see, there is this upcoming event here in town called barcamp
Jonesboro.  It is this really cool "convention" coming up all about the latest trends in Technology and the web.  I purchased my ticket today and am so excited and then I thank about it and realize that I am a nerd/geek.  I really enjoy that kind of stuff as well as blogging and writing.  The event is an all day deal.  It includes meals and also they will have prizes there.  Prizes never hurt since one of the prizes is an ipad.  My Lovely wife is so understanding.  She hears my ramblings about my excitement and just doesn't say anything.  She is happy for me that I get to go.  The event takes place on September 25th.  Their website tells more information. You can go to http://barcampjonesboro.com for more information.  Maybe would be able to drum up some more computer work while I am there.  You never know.  You can follow me on twitter @jeffweir and I even have a twitter account set up for my business @WeirComputing.  Maybe one day, I will make enough from my business so that I can build a new "Family computer" that isn't so sluggish like the one we have now.  I have this awesome laptop but the main home computer we have is about 8 to 10 years old and is time for a new one.  I really want to build our next one myself.  I have built/rebuilt ones for customers but never one for us. enough of my ramblings.  Need to spend time with the family instead of in front of the computer.  I do that all day anyway.
