OUR NOVEMBER MEETING IS TOMORROW
----------
Refresh Boston meets again tomorrow with special guest speaker Scott Berkun
(http://scottberkun.com). Scott is an author and speaker whose work has
appeared in the The Washington Post, The New York Times, Wired Magazine,
Fast Company, Forbes Magazine, and more. He will be promoting his latest
work, Confessions of a Public Speaker, with a presentation loosely based on
the book, emphasizing situations designers and creative people face.
Scott should hopefully be able to give away a few copies of the new book as
well thanks to the folks at O'Reilly. After the presentation and follow-up
questions, we'll be heading to Tommy Doyle's for drinks and Scott will be
happy to continue the discussion.

You'll need to first check in at the front desk on the 1st floor as a guest
of Microsoft and then head up to the 11th floor (where you'll need to check
in once again, but it's painless, we
swear...) to access their gorgeous multi-level space.
(PS. Update your Upcoming profile with your real name to help us get you on
a guest list and speed up the process.)
Parking is available on-site for $10 and at 1 Broadway for $7.
Street parking around the building is generally easy to find nearby as well,
