Bruce Sterling, cyberpunk author extrodinaire, is giving a lecture Tuesday night at the California College of the Arts, 7pm. Who doesn't love cyberpunk?

"dah-ling, we simply MUST stop by the new Westfield"

The grand opening of the new Westfield San Francisco Centre(with the second largest Bloomingdales next to NY) opens this Thursday, September 28th. Check out the dome, sample the food, or grab a SF inspired Bloomingdales shopping bag. Plenty of opening events to keep you busy... or delay your commute through downtown!

Tag: diggrz

[diggrz refers to the nomadic lifestyle offered by mobile digital technologies and gadgets - creating a "nomadig" culture. The diggrz name is also a tip-of-the-hat to some of the ideas of the Diggers, a democratic group that arose in 1649, out of the English revolution .

The Diggers were a radical group that cultivated and protected common lands, and sought to create egalitarian, self-sustaining communities. The Diggers would have found  kindred spirits in today's software engineer culture,  and the focus on creating  commonly owned technologies through egalitarian open source community projects. - Tom Foremski]
