LoCos and social media

[Brian Byrne]

Hello,

Please can I make a suggestion, as a long term user and Linux advocate
since the early 1990s?

Broaden out the appeal, bring everyone Linuxy into a "big tent", and don't
rely on silos.

We are starting to take that outward looking approach in the UK, with the
new Linuxing In London Meetup.

http://www.meetup.com/Linuxing-In-London/

We are a Linux* advocacy Meetup and are organising a stimulating range of
talks from Linux specialists, vendors and enthusiasts over the next year.
Our objective is to popularise and encourage the growth of Linux, along
with free open source software.

Every month we hold meetings at the great venue, Skills Matter, near
Liverpool Street station in London.

For 31st May we have two talks planned from SUSE and IBM, plus plenty of
opportunity for networking and stimulating conversations. We want to tackle
the gender imbalance in technology circles and really welcome the
participation of women speakers.

If you are in London on the last Tuesday of every month head on over by
Moorgate. Starts 18:15, finishing around 20:45, with two different
25-minute presentations.

I'd welcome your thoughts, ideas and constructive suggestions.

Brian Byrne.

* We like BSD and derivatives too.
