SHOT Annual Meeting

Wednesday, August 19th, 2009

Sandra talked about a meeting in Budapest, which had an significant IT History component. Here’s another: the Annual Meeting of the Society for the History of Technology, to be held this year in Pittsburgh, October 15-19. The program lists several papers and sessions that you will find of interest, including a paper that I am giving (session #37) on LISP and the Space Program (trust me).

But wait, there’s more! The Special Interest Group on Computers, Information, and Society will have its own supplemental program, on Sunday, October 18. Lots of interesting papers there, too. And the SIG will continue its long tradition of an informal lunch on Friday, October 16, where we can meet new folks and reconnect with old friends and colleagues.

See you there.
