Dangerous Ideas

From Whole Brain Catalog

The "Dangerous Ideas" social promotes more cross talk and cross pollination of ideas!

You can follow it online Thursdays at 4pm PST.

Here's how it works:

1. Bring drinks / snacks
2. Bring an idea that you think is cool and that you can show off in 5 minutes.
   • This can be a website, tool, project, or anything else that can be explained quickly.
3. Have fun!

Its a completely open event-- anyone is welcome to join in, but should be prepared to present!
