One. Hundred. Sessions.</p>
<p>Seriously. We know. We can hardly wait. We&#8217;re talking 100 fun, <strong>FREE</strong>, practical gatherings of goodness to show you and yours a few new easy things to take up online.</p>

<p>Women across the country will be coming together this Fall for the October and November Hands On Small Business (#HOSB) series — all brought to you in by the <a href="http://kirtsy.com/index.php?category=Politics%2CWorld_Business" target="_blank">Politics, World and Business section</a> of Kirtsy and the very good people of <a href="http://www.officelive.com/" target="_blank">Microsoft Office Live</a>. All of the 100 gatherings will be held <strong>October 5 – November 20</strong> in 20 areas across the country including:</p>

<p>So if we&#8217;re coming to a city near you, please plan to join in on the fun! And bring your laptop if you have one!</p>
<p>Not in your city? Well, darn. You have two options:</p>
<ol>
<li>Let us know where your city is, and we&#8217;ll try to put you on the list for the next round of fun.</li>
<li>Get yourself to one of these cities on the scheduled dates. Go ahead. Plan a field trip.</li>
</ol>
<p>We&#8217;ll be announcing specific dates and times momentarily (all 100 sessions will happen between 10/5 and 11/20).</p>
<p>So watch for more details on specifics and sign up information. And get ready to save your spot in your favorite site and scheduled date.</p>
<p>In the meantime, get ready, and get set to go.</p>
<p>We can&#8217;t wait to see you there!</p>
