October Meeting - Tales of Explorations

The beginner's track will start at 6:00pm.

At 7:15, we will start presentations.

Part I
For the first part we are welcoming everyone to bring lightning talks on their explorations:

• Recent explorations? Languages? Libraries? Tools? Tells about something fresh!

• Tips and tricks for exploring? Practices you employ. Techniques that work.

• Looking for fellow explorers? Start something new!

Share it with the group in a 3-5 minute lightning talk!

Signup will be via whiteboard on the night of the meetup.

Here are some tips for delivering a good lightning talk (http://software.ac.uk/home/cw11/giving-good-lightning-talk).

We'll look at how you can use it, and why you should care.
