  David Weekly, Tinkering Before Millions

   How to take a hobby hack and turn it into a service used by millions (and
   hopefully that MAKES millions).

   David Weekly is the founder and CPO of PBwiki. PBwiki is the world's
   largest business wiki host and is home to over 500,000 communities,
   including groups at over at third of the Fortune 500. He graduated as a
   President Scholar from Stanford in 2000 with a BS in Computer Science and
   has worked for such institutions as Harvard Physics, MIT Lincoln Labs,
   Stanford Graphics, atWeb, Legato, and There.com. David wrote the first
   layman's level description of MP3 in early 1997, reverse engineered the
   Napster protocol in an evening, and was a finalist in the ACM
   International Programming Competition. David lives in a Cupertino mansion
   with seven others (he's the sommelier) and throws periodic all-night
   hackathons called SuperHappyDevHouse there. David is an adviser to several
   Bay Area startups, including Jaxtr, KiteDance, MusicManagement, and
   IncentAlign. He last spoke at PenLUG in November 2006.

  Traffic on 101 can be pretty bad in the evening, so we encourage you
  to check traffic conditions before driving by dialing 5-1-1 on your
  phone or visiting www.511.org, and if possible to take public transit
  (best bet: bicycle via Caltrain) or carpool to this meeting.
