I wasn't expecting much when I heard about Savannah's first annual Geekend 2009. Granted, I work for the oldest online marketing and web development company in Savannah -- Systems Connect, Inc -- and I am pretty geeky myself, but I wasn't looking forward to boring lectures about Google algorhythems, Graphic Design techniques and people making more money than me off of social networking and blogging techniques.
Dancing, drinking, music, art, tasty food and ecstatic conversation encompassed the Young Professionals of Savannah's celebration of their 4th year in operation over at Sol.
Having officially formed back in 2005 YPS provides a niche outlet for young professionals and entrepreneurs to come together and network, mutually benefiting from each other's ideas and services. YPS continued to demonstrate their growing legacy of local support and involvement with a celebration doubling as a fund raiser.

Bring your launch chair, crack open your favorite cold one and enjoy one of the best festival Savannah has to offer.
When Dannet from Salon Jolie told me about the art show that was going to take place Satureday, September 19, 2009 over at the salon she was very excited and so was I for that matter. It was to be Eric Frazier, a local artist who apparently had a lot to offer. So, I agreed to cover the event.
The 7th Annual Savannah International Food & Wine Festival was a site to see, taste and drink right up.
