TechHui - New Social Network for Island Geeks

[dleuck]

We recently launched a new social network for techies. Please join us at TechHui.com. Professional geeks and technology enthusiasts are welcome.

We were recently covered in the Star-Bulletin.

Great write-up! Erika rocks. Of course, I'm a proud new member of TechHui (as are several of us here). 'Twas great to meet several TechHui folks at Unconferenz!

TechHui runs on Ning (mentioned in our Social Software thread), the same social network platform behind local vlogger community The Reef, the local Jodo Shu Hawaii group, and my experimental HawaiiVox community. The backend provides some connectivity so membership across communities is easier to handle.

Hmmmmm, isn't "tech" and "geeks" a little broader then just software languages?

Yes. The site is software heavy because I am a software guy. My hope is that other types of techies will join. We have started to see a little of this.
