Event Description

Hello OrlandoJUG!

Tonight is our monthly OJUG meeting. I'm just back from a very exciting conference called OSCON - the O'Reilly Open Source Conference in Portland, OR. 

I'm going to go over what I learned at OSCON tonight and hit on some current trends I became aware of at the conference. 
There were thousands of people at the conference. Plus, there were about 10 tracks which equated to 10 talks per hour, 8 hours a day for 5 days! Overwhelming? Nah - it was exciting and a bunch of fun. I learned so much about current trends in computing. And, the after-events - the BOF's (birds of a feather sessions) and the mixers were informative, as well.
I made lots of new contacts, learned enough to keep my grey matter hopping for a long time, and can't wait to convey all I can to you. 
So, please RSVP so I'll know how much pizza to order - I look forward to seeing many of you tonight. And, please don't hesitate to invite our friends and colleagues. 
All the best,
Michael Levin
Chairman, OrlandoJUG
