📝 Editor's Note
I’m looking for a co-host of an OC tech coffee event. 8 people, 60 minutes, two topics, highly organized, everyone leaves on time. If this interests you, reply and let me know. Also, I recognize that some of the news I share is bordering on tech (such as electrifying the Balboa Ferry). Close enough for me! Now onto the week’s news and events.
