Wiki gurus, feel free to expand this page. Be kind.


Lets self-coordinate some informal presentations for our weekly meeting. What would be an ideal presentation?

  • A short rundown on how to 'power use' a program(awk, sed) or application.
  • A overview of your latest projects. Please, no commercial site pimping, but a big yes to something interesting like scalability issues or engineering solutions.


Topics

Please post a title/topic/genre of a talk you are willing to give along with your name and how deep will you dive into the topic? Notes on availability, requirements, etc. can be added.

We believe these talks will be interesting, cover many different topics, be fun for listeners and speakers, interactive and member-driven. Sharing pet projects, technical accomplishments and good ideas can be the start of great conversations, and can bring in more members. Special guest speakers will still be brought in.
