DC Food - Technology Meetup

Not "food technology", like blenders and bread machines, "food-technology", how we can use the Internet to share information about food.

Data: Developing XML standards for ag data and building repositories of ag data online

Economics: the food economy

Farmers: knowing the people who grow our food

Information: farmers markets, climate change, CSAs, best practices, etc.

Visualization: using maps (geocoding) & graphics to display statistics

When you're taking care of your food, you're taking care of your soil, your community, your ecosystem...your planet.
