Summary
Introducing the Pirate Party of Massachusetts:
The Intersection of Open Government and
Open Technology
Abstract
Did you know that there is a Pirate Party of
Massachusetts?
Join us for an introduction to the Pirate Party by
co-founder and current captain, James O'Keefe.
James will discuss the Pirate Party's fascinating
vision of a more open government and greater
transparency in our civic and digital lives.
This is a timely discussion and one which
will appeal to both technologists, members
of the broader community, and citizens
concerned about privacy and freedom
in an age increasingly dominated by
powerful corporate and government
entities.
Join the discussion and learn ways you can get
involved including steps you can take to increase
freedom and transparency for yourself,
your family and your community.
About Our Speaker
James O'Keefe is a co-founder of the
Massachusetts Pirate Party and
is its current Captain.
He fell in love with the Internet in 1990 when he
started work in Technical Support at FTP Software.
He occasionally reminisces about his life before
being able to be on the Internet at the touch of
a finger, but not often and seldom for long.
He views defending the Internet and expanding
the possibilities it offers for our world
as his lifelong calling.
James presently works at Akamai as a software QA
engineer while making a reasonable attempt at
coaching his son's soccer team and being his
family's chauffeur.
Transportation & Parking
The Akamai office is a short walk from the
Kendall Square T stop and other public
transportation.
Metered parking is normally available near our location.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and Social Media Marketing for FOSS
Professionals and Evangelists
Abstract
Free and open source software is the source of most of the
technological innovation of our day, but sometimes it doesn't shine in
the limelight. Unfortunately, much of our amazing work doesn't get the
press, media or financial attention it deserves.
In this presentation, Joseph outlines the basics of search engine
optimization and social media marketing, and shows how we can better
exploit these methods for our community's success.
