@Dawn: I figured you’d want to wait for the new digs to be ready. Already 38 attending/watching on upcoming, we may need a bigger boat.

Jake / Jeff,

I think that it would be great to get people who don’t necessarily work in technology involved. Anyone interested in web 2.0 / social software is welcome!

Also, Jive plans to host one of these in the future, but we’re bursting at the seams in our current location, so we’ll wait and do one this summer after we move to our new office.

@Jeff IMHO there are no hard requirements, just an open mind and an interest in meeting new people and checking out a new company.

It would be sweet to put a PDX-stamp on Lunch 2.0, and this may be it, i.e. it’s not just geeks and recruiters here, it’s a cross-section of Portland. That would make it more sustainable too, since non-techie companies might be interested.

Thoughts?

how important is it that attendies work at cool high tech, web 2.0ish companies? okay that I work at an old, boring, silicon valley high tech co?

You can all come to my house for grilled cheese one time. And I make a mean red beans and rice for the vegan types.

Ideally, the first of many in Portland, so we’ll need the Florist to recruit hosts.

I’ve been hoping something like this would come to Portland. I can’t wait to finally meet some more of the other PDX geeks
