[Noisebridge-discuss] Money and Dojo

[Ever Falling]

we have a greeting computer but it's mostly used as a common internet portal
for anyone who didn't bring a laptop. Maybe the touch screen nearest the
door can have a large icon on it that would direct people to the main
'about' sections of the wiki (vision, membership, etc)? included in that
would be the form to sign up to the mailing list to get updates on the
space. i like this idea over a sign-in computer cause i'm not sure i see the
reason for knowing who's been coming in and when and there's a buncha tin
foil hatted people who would be against it on principle i'm sure.
