This is very exciting. In short, Hacker Hours are:

* "free office hours for programming help"
* open to anyone, regardless of age or skill level
* not a class, and not a lecture

Here are a few things to take into account when considering hosting:

* Why would you like to host Hacker Hours?
* Do you haven any specific goals/objectives for hosting? (recruiting, brand recognition, giving back, etc.) <br />
* What are you thinking in terms of frequency? <br />
* What is the space like? <br />
* How many attendees can your space hold comfortably? <br />
* How many folks from your organization do you expect to stay for each event, on average? How many of them our technical? <br />

FYI, one of the big perks of Git is that your computer can explode, and you can pick up your work right where you left off! Should you run into the problem again:

# clone the repository from your fork
git clone https://github.com/codybousc/hackerhours.org.git
# go into the directory
cd hackerhours.org
# switch to this branch
git checkout diy-questions

# ...make changes...

# commit the changes
git commit -a -m "removed the extraneous <br> tags"
# send them up to github
git push -u origin diy-questions
# the pull request will now be updated

Meeting the above requirements are the only things we ask to call your group "Hacker Hours". We won't sue you or anything, but just ask in good faith.
