 Internet Entrepreneur Joichi ITO

    October's meeting will give us a chance to hear from one of Japan's most
    prominent Internet entrepreneurs, Joichi ITO.  He has participated in a
    variety of business ventures, as well as playing a role in governmental,
    media, and academic forums. He has promised a very informal talk covering
    a bit of history, a look at what is hot now, and some of his visions for
    the future.

 Annual General Meeting: Officer Elections

    October is also the Tokyo PC User Group's "Annual General Meeting." TPC
    members will have the opportunity vote for the officers to chair the club
    for the next year.  The election will fill the posts of President,
    Uvae-President, and Treasurer.

 The meetings are held in the basement of The Tokyo Union Church on
 Omotesando Dori, a short walk from the A-1 exit of the Omotesando
 subway station on the Ginza, Hanzomon, and Chiyoda Lines. The entrance
 is through the parking area at the rear of the church.
 Non-members Y1000 at the door.

 religious organization.

 2. TPC Newsgroups
 ================================================

 Even if you can't attend the regular monthly meeting be sure to join
 us online in the TPC Newsgroups. We run a private news server with
 over 25 newsgroups covering many different topics tailored to the
 online community in Japan. These newsgroups are only found on our
 server and thus cut out much of the noise associated with the Japan
 related Usenet groups and contain postings from people who live
 locally.

 For details on our newsgroups see:
