# memePDX 023: Open Source Bridge, Portland Mayor Sam Adams on Twitter, Oregon Film Lunch 2.0, Ustream funding, and Facebook

Hey all of you Portland tech types. It’s Thursday again. And you know what that means, right? It means it’s time for another riveting episode of memePDX, where we cover the hottest tech stories in Portland… and beyond.

This week, [Cami Kaos](http://twitter.com/camikaos "Cami Kaos") and I discuss [Open Source Bridge’s dates and volunteer sprint](http://siliconflorist.com/2010/02/02/open-source-bridge-2010-dates-announced-june-14-volunteer-sprint-held-weekend/ "Open Source Bridge 2010: Dates announced (June 1-4) first volunteer sprint to be held this weekend"), [Portland Mayor Sam Adams on Twitter](http://www.oregonlive.com/news/oregonian/anna_griffin/index.ssf/2010/01/sam_adams_needs_to_toss_twitte.html "Sam Adams needs to toss Twitter and get back to the big picture for Portland"), [Oregon Film hosting Portland Lunch 2.0](http://siliconflorist.com/2010/01/31/oregon-film-beam-development-hivefx-host-lunch-20/ "Oregon Film Beam Development Hive-FX to Host Lunch 2.0"), [Ustream getting a ton of funding](http://www.techcrunch.com/2010/02/01/ustream-funding-softbank/ "Ustream gets $75 million"), and [Marshall Kirkpatrick pontificating on Facebook’s future as a news reader](http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/facebook_aims_to_succeed_where_google_reader_faile.php "Facebook Could Become World's Leading News Reader").

But, as the sage Mr. T often says, “Enough jibber jabber!” Let’s get to it.
