San Francisco Bay Area Meetup

[Michael Shiloh]

I would love some help with my "getting started" blog. There are many 
how-tos on the wiki but they need to be tested and verified before I'll 
put them on the "gettingstartedopenmoko.wordpress.com".

In a different thread we've discussed the quality of our wiki. Cleaning 
up the wiki will provide me a much better starting point for the how-tos.
