The first of 3 networking events in 3 consecutive nights! Chicagoans must love to pass out business cards. This event’s in Lisle.
Wednesday, September 19
A big networking event put on by BNC. It’s been promoted pretty heavily, so there should be a lot of folks there. This one’s in the city.

Recommended. Tim Courtney of XNet is putting on a suburban (Lisle) take on TECH cocktail. Free booze, free food, lots of sponsors, and XBox 360 giveaway — you’d better believe I’ll be there!
Friday, September 28 and Saturday, September 29
This BarCamp is dedicated to Microsoft’s new Silverlight technology, which as far as I can tell is a multimedia-focused Flash-like platform that’s search engine-friendly. And it has a way sexier name than most Microsoft projects, so kudos for that.
