Hello,
This is your final semi-automated reminder that the next joint Surrey and
Hampshire LUG Bring-a-Box meeting is being held at the University of Surrey
in Guildford this weekend, on Saturday 14th March.
http://www.surrey.lug.org.uk/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?BringABox
=== What's happening ===
The doors open from 11am, then once everyone's settled, we can start the
talks. We've just lots lined up this time, so I apologise for us only having
the one room.
Our main talks will start before lunch and are as follows:
* Developing Nicely: Digital Photography on Linux
- Tony Whitmore
* How-To Impress, an introduction to giving talks and presentations
- Adam Trickett
Three five minute "Ignite!" talks have been volunteered:
* Websites with style, Drupal style
("Look what I did with my LAMP stack, Mummy!")
- John W
* Hacking Webconverger[1] for fun and profit
- Freaky Clown
* Installing Ubuntu on a Playstation 3
- Richard Crossley
Lunch will be taken at some point between these (partly at the on-campus bar)
and normal Bring-a-Box activities will continue until the end of the day at
5pm.
=== Further info ===
We're in the School of Management, as in December with Hants. This is
located at the front of the University, very close to the main car park.
The wiki contains more info - signs will be up outside the building (number 23
on the map). Look out for Tux!
Everybody is welcome at our meetings - no membership or previous experience is
required. Feel free to bring along a computer or laptop if you wish, there
will be power sockets available.
There will be no internet access this month. Please use the opportunity to
listen to the many talks and socialise! :-)
=== Location ===
The campus is a short walk from the main Guildford train station and is just
off the A3 if you're coming by car. Full details are available on the wiki,
including maps and detailed travel information to the University campus:
