Colorado Tech Weekly #308: Mostly Good News. Some of it Self-Serving

Colorado Tech Weekly brings you the top 10 technology stories of the past week and the best upcoming local tech events every Monday morning!
When I started Tech Weekly over 300 weeks ago, I dreamed of what it would be like to contribute to a company that is creating tech news. This week I get to share Infinicept news as an Infinicept employee and as a Colorado tech community blogger. I admit, it feels a lot stranger than I thought it would.
Have a great week!
