July 11, 2002 Meeting Announcement
Chris Pirillo of Lockergnome and TechTV

Note that the July meeting is going to be a week later than our usual first Thursday —that’s because the first Thursday of July is the July 4th Independence Day holiday, and no one will be there. So join us on the second Thursday, July 11, for a DVPC meeting that’s going to be a real hit. From Des Moines, Iowa, and San Francisco, California comes the Internet phenomenon known as Lockergnome (www.lockergnome.com). Chris Pirillo and his digital gang distribute personality-driven tech newsletters. Customer Satisfaction is one of their primary goals, and the readers (Gnomies) will agree. Chris is also the host of the popular TechTV show Call for Help (www.techtv.com/callforhelp). You can read all about Chris at www.lockergnome.com/chris.html, or not, but be sure to come to the July 11 DVPC meeting and find out why this guy is called an “Internet phenomenon”. You’ll be glad that you did.
DVPC meetings are held in the lobby conference room in Building B at the Bank of America Technology Center office complex in Concord, located near the northeast corner of Clayton Road at Galindo (see the Map to Monthly Meetings on page 15). Please use the entrance that’s on the east side near the southeast corner of the building. Doors open at 6:00 p.m. and the meeting starts at 7:00 p.m.
The New Users SIG holds its meetings at 6:30 p.m. prior to the regular DVPC monthly meeting on the first Thursday of each month at Bank of America building B. We discuss whatever is confusing or puzzling new PC users. If you are a new user of PCs who would like to meet with other new users - and some experienced users who can answer your questions as well - then join us at the New Users SIG meetings at 6:30 p.m. prior to each DVPC monthly meeting.
We'll also have the Networking Table from 6:30 to 7:00; if you have something to sell or trade, need technical help, or just want to exchange views, visit the Networking Table. We will have one of our pre-meeting games, with a great prize for the winner! Also, as usual, we'll have library disks and those great DVPC mugs (version 2) for sale, SIG news, and some of our usual great door prizes.
