Prior to the Digital Engagement Meatballs Happy Hour, from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at the Hilton (the NTC Conference Hotel), there is a gathering of community technology advocates hosted by the Technology Literacy Collaborative (Twin Cities) and the Community Technology Network (San Francisco) called Building Bridges that Span the Digital Divide.

It is open to local non-conference attendees as well. So, go there first and then join the party after just one minute down the street.
