We get so busy and we try to do so much that sometimes we forget the finer things in life. My prayer is that you and your families will enjoy a wonderful holiday together.
It’s been a great year coming together in the volunteer spirit to promote African Americans in IT and I’m looking forward to 2010 as we expand and grow beyond our wildest dreams!
Warmest thoughts and best wishes for a wonderful holiday!

We also recognize our corporate sponsors for the financial and volunteer resources provided to us, even during the economic challenges faced during this year.

We had a wonderful event last year and plan to have the same amount of positive energy generated by our guests this year.

2010 Technology Job Outlook - Readers Poll Now Open
2010 Technology Job Outlook - Readers Poll Now Open
By 2010, it is expected the U.S. will face a shortage of 10,033,000 workers. It’s hard to believe, but data from the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics that tracks expected job openings vs. working population indicates this is the case.
Don’t believe the hype! Like most industries, information technology has had significant job losses.
It’s your opinion that matters. Please take this short 3-minute survey. Survey results will be published on Blacks Gone Geek website on 1/17/2010.
