Subject: [NBLUG/Announce] General Meeting 2012-01-10: Hackfest
Message-ID: <20120109061247.GA26002@moses.greenfly.net>

Start: 2012/01/10 - 7:30pm
End: 2012/01/10 - 9:00pm
Location: O'Reilly Media
Description:

    Instead of a regular speaker, this month we are going to do a hackfest.
    Like the previous hackfests we will take half of the meeting to conduct
    lightning talks from the first four people who sign up for one. After
    that we will spend the rest of the time in a more loosely-structured
    social setting where everyone can show each other what they have been
    working on or ask for help. This would be a good meeting to bring your
    computers.

Subject: [NBLUG/Announce] General Meeting: Double-header: Two talks for the
	price of one
Message-ID: <20120308191930.GW16750@greenfly.net>

Start: 2012/03/13 - 7:30pm
End: 2012/03/13 - 9:00pm
Location: O'Reilly Media
Speaker: Mike Higgins and Jezra
Description:

What is longer than a lightning talk but shorter than a normal talk? This
month you'll find out as we have two different speakers giving talks:

Mike Higgins:
Title: "Life without an Evil Cellphone Company"
Summary: Why Cellphone Companies are Evil. How I hacked a 'Droid phone
without realizing it. Using Skype and Wifi hotspots to make calls on my
Droid phone without a cellphone carrier. Trouble in paradise (things are
not working perfectly yet).

Jezra:
Title "Creating a media player that suits my needs"
Summary Jezra will discuss the *what, why, and how* of creating media
playing software that is (hopefully) suitable for a low end HTPC.
