Those of you who, for whatever reason, will end up at ShmooCon this weekend, be sure to stalk say hello to Grey Frequency, our own Shmoo superstar.
Additionally, you might like to check out Grey’s boyfriend’s talk, “How do I pwn thee? Let me count the ways.” It promises to be interesting, and not just because this editor got to draw some cartoon slides he’ll be using in his presentation.

At the last meeting we had the pleasure of meeting some of the local crew of Bastard Sons of Dialup, a quite interesting and often brilliant Internet TV show by and for hackers.
These affable folks arrived bearing a small arsenal of gadgets to show-and-tell, including a really cool point-and-shoot wireless CCTV scanner which drew our resident meeting photographers like flies, as our August meeting photos will attest.
BSoD started out well last year, and it gets better with every episode. Check out the in-depth tutorials, interviews, and other goodies on their episode list.

Evan Koblentz writes in with a pointer to an event that looks like a lot of fun.
Hi, fellow hackers. Wanted to inform you guys of the VCF East this weekend, here in NJ. Our show was mentioned on “Off the Hook” recently so you might already know about it. This year’s keynote speaker is Chuck Peddle, of MOS 6502 fame. We’ll also have around 20 exhibits - the list is here: http://www.vintage.org/2007/east/exhibit.php.
Our venue is about an hour from Manhattan. You guys will have a LOT of fun, we promise! Our user group ran a small demo at HOPE 2006; this event dwarfs that.

I really wish I could attend, but I’m otherwise occupied this weekend. Someone please go and affectionately stroke a Commodore PET for me!

For more information on the premiere and to buy tickets, check out 2600’s post on the event.
For more information on the film itself, visit its official site and its IMDb page.
Once you have all that information, consider adding it to the film’s stub of a Wikipedia page.
