Mo building her 5th PC

FreeGeek is a non-profit community organization that recycles and refurbishes used technology, Free Geek happily provides computers, education, and job skills training to volunteers in exchange for their service.

Mo is volunteering in the Build Program at Free Geek this summer and recently earned her free computer which she will donate to an individual as part of sponsoring high school students.   Seen here working in the build program she is now off to master additional skills loading Linux and fixing Notebooks.

Build Program

Free Geek can teach you how to build computers. If you agree to complete at least five computers, we will teach you the process. The computers you build go to those in the Adoption Program, local not-for-profits, and the thrift store. This program focuses on learning about building computers, but you can keep the sixth computer you complete.

Re-Make America

Following on President Obama’s call to “begin again the work of remaking America”, Maker Faire 2009 will be organized around the theme of Re-Make America. Held in the San Francisco Bay Area on May 30-31, Maker Faire celebrates what President Obama called “the risk takers, the doers, and the makers of things.” The fourth annual Maker Faire will showcase individual creativity and grassroots innovation in the largest festival devoted to DIY culture and technology in the country.

As WEngineering grows, John Walker, principal engineer, founder and president of WEngineering has relocated his web presence to enginerve.com to improve the focus of his consulting work in information technology and engineering.  John continues to be active throughout WEngineering practices; however, the web presence for WEngineering needed to be directed towards the Industrial Engineering consulting practice.  The goal is to reduce the clutter and confusion on the web site.
