If you know someone who lives in the Bay Area can you do me a favor? Send them this calendar? I work really hard on it every week and think it's a genuinely useful thing, but I feel like it's so hard to get the word out!!! www.coyotemedia.org/coyote-calen...

Nellie Killian was perhaps New York’s top programmers for the decade I lived there. I can’t wait to see what she brings to the Bay Area.
