# REMINDER: Identica meetup at Russell Street BBQ today

As many of you know, [Evan Prodromou](http://identi.ca/evan "Evan Prodromou") of [Laconica](http://laconi.ca "Laconica")—the foundation of the open source microblogging service [Identica](http://identi.ca)—is here in town for [Open Source Bridge](http://opensourcebridge.org "Open Source Bridge"). He’s been spending time in the hacker lounge and speaking at the conference. But he wants to make sure that he can meet up with other Identica users while he’s in town.

What to do? [Hold a meetup](http://controlyourself.ca/2009/06/18/portland-dent-event-19-june-2009-12-noon/ "Portland Dent Event"). Which is exactly what he’ll be doing. At [Russell Street BBQ](http://www.russellstreetbbq.com/ "Russell Street BBQ"). Today. At noon.

> It seems like a great time to have a dentevent here in Portland—our third so far! So I’m calling it: lunch dentevent at the Russell Street BBQ at 325 NE Russell Street. It’s a great place to eat, with a nice patio—hopefully the weather will be with us. Open Source Bridge attendees are welcome, but folks in Portland who didn’t go to OSB are welcome too. (I hope we get some poets.) Looking forward to meeting up!
