Sidepocket informs us that over on Facebook, the existing NYC2600 Alumni group was recently left without an admin. To remedy this and prevent similar occurrences in the future, Sidepocket has recreated NYC2600’s Facebook presence as a Fan Page, which allows for multiple admins as well as being easier to join and use.
So in technical terms, Facebook users are advised to ditch the old and busted and get in on the new hotness!
Interested users of Facebook and other social networks and online services are encouraged to check out our Internet Forums page, where you can find NYC2600 presences all over this great Internet of ours, or start new ones where needed.

If you were at least week’s meeting, you might have been given a charming orange card alerting you to the existence of Alpha One Labs, New York City’s newest up-and-running hackerspace.
Psytek and the rest of the crew behind Alpha One Labs have gotten things going in practically no time. They’ve already got a physical space in Williamsburg, open meetings, open membership, and the first of their public classes will be happening soon. You can also follow Alpha One Labs on Twitter.
For more info on hackerspaces, visit hackerspaces.org.

NYC2600’s own volt4ire is leaving for Washington, DC in pursuit of that strange quarry known in hushed whispers as “college education.”
volt4ire, you’re a brilliant guy, an esteemed colleague, and a great friend. On behalf of this site and myself I wish you the best, all the best, and nothing but the best. You shall be missed, and I eagerly await your visits home and sordid tales of university life.
You can follow the continuing adventures of volt4ire on his Twitter.
