# memePDX 007: Portland is open, WhereCamp PDX, WordPress.tv, Marshall Kirkpatrick, Google Wave, and boco

\[HTML2\]It’s Thursday. And that means it’s time for yet another roundup of the hottest tech stories in Portland and beyond. And while this episode may be numbered 007, it’s probably not as suave or charming as Mr. Bond. Well, [Cami Kaos](http://twitter.com/camikaos "Cami Kaos") might be. But not [Rick Turoczy](http://twitter.com/turoczy "Rick Turoczy"). For sure.

This week, we cover [Portland’s openness](http://siliconflorist.com/2009/09/30/portland-oregon-open-city-officially-embracing-open-data-open-source/ "Portland, Oregon, joins the ranks of the open cities, officially embracing open data and open source"), [WhereCamp PDX](http://siliconflorist.com/2009/09/29/wherecamp-pdx-2009/ "WhereCamp PDX"), [WordPress.tv](http://wordpress.tv/category/location/portland-location/ "WordPress.tv"), [Marshall Kirkpatrick](http://marshallk.com/social-media-consulting-can-be-extremely-valuable " Social Media Consulting Can Be Extremely Valuable"), [Google Wave](http://wave.google.com "Google Wave"), and [boco](http://boco.me "boco"). Oh and we throw [40 iPhone apps](http://siliconflorist.com/2009/10/06/silicon-forest-iphone-app-air-sharing-zipcar/ "From Air Sharing to Zipcar: 40+ iPhone apps developed in the Silicon Forest") in to boot.

You’ll also notice that [we’re trying out Viddler](http://www.viddler.com/explore/memepdx/ "memePDX on Viddler") for embedding the video. We’d love to hear your thoughts on that. And of course, feel free to comment.
