Our friend, John Mark Walker, recently pointed us to a really cool event coming up next weekend, LugRadio Live. The event features some of the best minds in open source gathering for an irreverent celbration of life, liberty, and the persuit of free software.
Tickets are even cheaper than SF Beta — only ten bucks — and when you consider that you get a full weekend conference for the price, that’s a pretty sweet deal. If any of the above topics interest you, check it out!

A mere seven days remain until SNAP Summit 2.0. As the Bay Area’s premier conference on the business and design of social apps, we’ve got an amazing lineup of speakers, and based on how sales are going, we’re expecting a really good turnout as well.
Check out the site for more info. Hope to see you there!

I just came across a blog post written by Hiren Patel about SF Beta. He writes a wonderful guide to attending our events, and includes some great suggestions on how to approach new people. My favorite line:
“The question you might be asking right now is what do I say to get into the conversation when two people are in it: Anything.”
You can view the full post here. Thanks, Hiren!

We’re proud to announce the next SF Beta, taking place Tuesday, January 29. We’ll be back with a great mix of startups, bloggers, investors, developers, marketers, and more, at our much-loved home, 111 Minna Gallery.
To change things up for the new year, we’ve decided to standardize our prices. Now, instead of two pricing tiers, everyone will pay the same amount: $15 online, and $25 at the door. We settled on these amounts because they were half way between our two former prices, which we hope you’ll find fair.
Interested in coming? Buy tickets here.
Interested in demoing? Startups can show off their site for free. Sign up here.

Looking for a way to celebrate with the startup stars one last time before the year is over? We’re throwing a big holiday party to wind up the year, and look ahead at the next one
We’re calling it the SF Beta Holiday Bash. Tickets are now available and we’re keeping prices the same as always.
As always, we have tables set up across the venue for startups to demo. And, like always, the cost to demo is free. If you’re interested in showing the world your stuff, sign up on our wiki.

Looking for a way to jump head-first into the startup life? Tyler Willis recently emailed me to tell me about StartupWeekend, a nationwide series of weekends that bring together a group of people to build a startup from ground floor to finished product in one weekend. According to the blog, “It’s an intellectual challenge and an exercise in teamwork, efficiency, and fun.”
This sounds like a really cool event. For those who are just looking to get into the startup space, I highly recommend you check out the event, taking place November 16-18. Tickets are free and both techincal and non-technical folks can sign up.
