Oxford Geek Nights offer a chance for web developers and designers in the local area to get together, share their skills and talk about new ideas, techniques and technologies.
Each OGN consists of two keynote talks of 15 minutes each. There are also frenetic bursts of socialising, sometimes adverts for other local groups, but always interspersed with two sets of 5-minute-long microslot sessions.
Keynotes
Keynote speakers are invited to talk at Oxford Geek Nights. OGN19 will feature:
- Making things fast, by Leila Johnston, podcaster, newspaper editor, comedy writer and punk broadcaster (slides, video)
- CMIS: encouraging connections, by David Caruana, Alfresco (slides, video)
Microslots
These are five-minute "lightning" talks that anyone can volunteer for. Want to volunteer for a microslot at OGN19? They're easy to do: pick something that excites you, or a project you've worked on that you think might be of interest; then talk to a friendly audience for just five minutes with a handful of slides. Submit your microslot and we'll see you on the night!
Currently confirmed microslots are:
- Internet Plumbing for Beginners, by Ben Ward (slides, video)
- Industrial Twitter Robot Slays Oxford Geeks; Total Carnage At Local Tech Event, by Matt Thorne (slides, video)
- Mobile Ox and the Molly Project, by Tim Fernando (slides) (video)
