From a recent article in the Orlando Weekly: ...a few of the fascinating folks he introduced me to that evening. Gregg Pollack, the founder of the Orlando Ruby Users Group, a club dedicated to a web programming language way too complex for my Visual Basic brain to comprehend. That officially makes him a supernerd, but one with a soul. He’s trying to connect creative people in the techie world, much as Messina does for the art-centric, and his latest efforts are attempting to bridge that divide. The events Ignite Orlando (igniteorlando.com), March 4 at Slingapours, and BarCamp Orlando (barcamporlando.org), April 18 at Wall Street Plaza, are ultra-democratic anti-conferences aimed at bringing together passionate individuals with ideas or innovations they want to share. Topics range from social-networking software to beer brewing; if you’ve got something to say, sign up. Florida Creatives
