GIS Day 2008 is coming, November 19! Mark it on your calendar and make sure you come back here for a special announcement from ClueTrust. The GIS Day web site allows you to search for events near you, and provides historical context for the celebration, which is always held on the Wednesday in the middle of Geography Awareness Week (sponsored by the National Geographic Society).

A sample of some of the things going on this year include:

• National Geographic's continuing Geography Action!
• ESRI always has something going on at their site.
• and the USGS is usually doing something at each of their local offices

Don't forget to go to the GIS Day web site to find out what's going on in your area!

The USGS has a podcast covering last year's festivities.
