Google Forms!

I learned today that it is really easy to create a google form! I tested it out by adding it to my new site, but it did not look like it belonged on the home page. I created a page for it, and tried to add the link on my index page and that failed. I am wondering if its because I'm using github pages. Will work on it more tomorrow, when the brain is fresh.

I had a blast at Seattle Girl Geek Dinner #54, hosted by Twitter. I met some new people, listened to a great talk, and even answered a few trivia questions correctly!

Resource guide for women in tech events.

I've been meaning to put out a resource guide for women in tech events for at least three years. Even though my wireframes aren't ready and the list isn't filled out, I've finally gone and published a straight HTML page. Everyone always asks me how I know about all these events. Through searching on Eventbrite, Facebook, and Meetups.com. Sometimes through networking. The information is out there. Instead of trying to remember off the top of my head what's coming up, you can now have this link to to to. If I am missing anything, please let me know. http://womenintech.guru/

Created a quick site on github and pointed it to a custom google domain!!

Well that was more frustrating than I expected. My problem was caused by ME. ROFL. I knew a little github, but I haven't used it in a long time. I forgot to activate Github Pages. Also, I didn't know how to point it towards my custom Google Domain that I just bought though. There were a couple of different sets of directions to use. This combination is the best set to use. This is the link for github pages instructions. https://guides.github.com/features/pages/ This is the link to point your github pages to your custom google domain. http://www.curtismlarson.com/blog/2015/04/12/github-pages-google-domains/ Here is my site: http://womenintech.guru/ It lists local seattle and national women in tech events. Good luck!
