Locations:

Be sure to check out these great venues and places off the strip while you are here.  Tweet something to #vegastech beforehand if you want to meet up with a crew already there.

The Beat Coffee House - located on Fremont St in an abandoned hospital that has been turned into a home for artists and geeks.  I highly recommend the Slap and Tickle sandwich and dollar PBRs for Happy Hour.

UsrLib - a tech library, co-working space and meetup venue.  This place has only been open for a few months but has already proven to be a great asset to the #vegastech community.

Insert Coins - Bar + Arcade, enough said.  

Zappos - and of course you can always come check out Zappos for a personal Bootleg tour.  Just tweet Rick Duggan or myself to get it set up.

We are excited for you to discover the off strip tech world that is developing here in Vegas.  If you have any questions at all, tweet with the hashtag #vegastech and hold onto your underwear.
