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. OGN22 will feature:
- FixMyTransport, by Louise Crow, developer at mySociety (slides)
- The UX of Learning, by Tyler Tate, UX lead at TwigKit (slides)
Microslots
Microslots are five-minute "lightning talks" that anyone can volunteer for. They consist of around five to ten slides and the audience is generally friendly and interested!
- Time and Relative Dimension in Cyberspace: Coming to a browser near you, by Jon Leighton (slides)
- Vagrant: How I stopped worrying and learned to love the VM, by Branden Faulls (slides)
- Designing around bad business decisions, by Simon Clayson (slides)
- The Pirate Party: Politics for a digital information age, by John Barron (slides)
Want to volunteer a microslot for OGN23, some time in September? Submit your idea here and we'll see you on the night!
