What you'll get out of PDXTech4Good events: Nonprofit staffers will find a friendly, welcoming atmosphere for those not experienced with technology, and many chances to ask questions of tech-experienced nonprofits and experts. Techies will find opportunities to hear the real-world stories of nonprofit clients, and put their own expertise to social good — as well as the potential for lasting relationships (be they paid or volunteer) with leading organizations in our community. Activists and comm …

Obsessed with exercise and startups? Great, let's kill two birds with one stone and sweat while we network. Ideally, we'll morph into a sweet support group for the uber-motivated entrepreneurial athletic set! I'd love to talk shop while climbing mountains, or at least while cycling, hiking, kayaking, etc.  But I haven't had time for any epic adventures lately. If you'd like to organize - even intermittently - holler! ANY MEMBER can suggest a meetup activity!  You are all organizers: do it! E- …

Standing on Bridges and holding Obama signs is very, very cool! Let's get together Saturday morning at 10 a.m., at NE 28th over I-84 in Portland Oregon!

I will give you doughnuts, supply you coffee! and shoe you how much fun it i …

Would you like to have more chances of meeting politically liberal intelligent respectful non-sexist non-racist folks in Portland? We wont meet in loud bars where you cant hold a real conversation and we wont go to bars where folks drink and then they think and talk differently - not always so good for creating genuine mature friendship. I am a relationships counselor and I would love to help folks find each other in an atmosphere where folks can really get to know each other in a genuine and re …

Homo Neophilus meme trading for the intellectually curious… “We want to recruit you because you’re so gullible.  That is, gullible in the right way.  You’re skeptical about conventional wisdom, but attracted to unorthodox ideas…All humans are irrational, but there are two different kinds of irrationality-- those who love old ideas and hate and fear new ones, and those who despise old ideas and joyfully embrace new ones…They are all in one piece, so to speak…They are fully aware…And conscious w …

This is a group where democrats, progressives and green party affiliates can get together, have some fun, mingle, laugh, and be creative. This group is open to singles, married, and people with children. OK, so, democrats won this last election, but where are they? Let’s come out of hiding and get to know each other. Too many of us have hidden in the comfort of our safe homes, ducking and diving away from any activity which could put us, or our children, in the midst of a radical right-wing ext …

We are atheists and agnostics that think the natural world is all there is.  (This worldview is known as "Philosophical Naturalism" or "Metaphysical Naturalism.")  Given this outlook, how should we view life? What is the meaning of life? Where did we come from, and where are we going? How should we live the good life?  What is morality? What about love and other emotions?  We investigate to find naturalistic answers to these traditional human questions. Our group has two primary goals: 1. Develo …
