The next Net Tuesday is being organized by Elijah van der Giessen of the David Suzuki Foundation! Eli is rocking a whole new breed of Net Tuesdays – Imagine a mini social media camp where you can learn about & discuss the social media and tech tools that can rock your nonprofit/org/project!
Topics:
- How can my organization use Facebook to be more awesome? Should I use Pages or Groups?
- How can I use Twitter to find new supporters?
- How can I use Ning to build a community?
- How can I use free tools to power my online petitions?
In the Ning session, John and Peter from Bowen Island shared with us what they learned as a community! 🙂

In this photo, KK shared with us his secrets of using online tools 🙂

Pictorial review of La Casita Mexican Restaurant in Gastown, Vancouver



Nice and quiet during this early evening 🙂 We chose our own seat by the window, and our server was a friendly guy, who was very patient as we looked over the menu. After we had ordered our two entrees, we were brought fresh homemade chips and salsa. 🙂

A welcoming atmosphere awaited a whole crowd of post-game Happy Canuck fans. We were glad we decided to dine early to avoid the big rush of hungry folks.

Here is a dining special. And considering the HUGE portion of food with a beer, $11 is a great deal!

I had a small flauta meal, made with potato and feta cheese, topped with green salsa – DELICIOUS and very filling! Very reasonably priced also

My dinner companion had a burito on its own. It came drenched in cheese! Supremely filling and tasty – he remarked! 🙂

Our bill was very reasonable, and our waiter was always very attentive throughout our dinner.

The surprising finish of our meal, was the chalkboard sign encouraging everyone to stop and have lunch tomorrow, after shopping at the Army and Navy Legendary Shoe Sale which begins at 8 A.M. – It’s nice to see the neighborly feel of our area 🙂

All in all, it was a great meal for a reasonable price on a beautiful spring evening in Vancouver’s Gastown area 🙂
