1st Annual Hawaii Geek Meet

Everyone has their passion and for Ron it's Amateur Radio. Ever since I've known Ron, now going on close to 18 years, he's been the ham radio guy. But that's what a geek is, someone who is extremely interested in something almost to the point of obsessive. Normal people might find this peculiar but deep down inside we all have our geek tendencies, if you don't then you just might be a tad boring. So whether it was Ron and his mobile ham radio rig, Paul with his solar telescope, Bob with his talking pulse meter, the medieval warriors with their broad swords, Helen with her rockets or Team Twitter Hawaii with their customer tees, what made the 1st Annual Hawaii Geek Meet such a success was the unity in diversity. It was such an interesting cross section of nearly 100 attendees. You were bound to find something captivating or learn something new in the process. I took a bunch of picture but so did everyone else. You can find all the Hawaii Geek Meet photos here. You can also read the Twitter conversation by going to TweetScan.com and scan for #geekbbq. That Sunday went by super fast. The only thing I wish for was a three day weekend. Since Monday was a work day, I am ending this post here and getting some sleep before Tuesday sneaks up on me.
