Week 4: Video Night
by Andrew Godwin 09 Feb '09

09 Feb '09

This week, it's video time... Video Night =========== Wednesday 11th February, 19:00 Lecture Room B, Worcester College In the finest CompSoc tradition, we'll be showing one or more 'traditional' geeky films - suggestions (or, indeed, DVDs of films) are more than welcome. Even better, if turnout looks good enough, we'll invest in some popcorn and other filmish snacks. I have WarGames, so that's likely to be one of the films. If you're planning on coming, let me know, so I can go buy some crisps/popcorn/etc. Also, feel free to bring your own food along, as long as it's not too messy - we need to leave the room clean. Also in the news, we've just confirmed another talk towards the end of term, this time from Peter Molyneux - we're currently finding a venue for that. Hopefully I'll see plenty of you on Wednesday! Geek movies are good, honest. Andrew -- Andrew Godwin, President, Oxford Computer Society Jabber/GTalk/SIP/Email/MSN: andrew(a)aeracode.org Mobile: 07878 007 177 Web: http://www.ox.compsoc.net

Week 3: Lightning Talks
by Andrew Godwin 02 Feb '09

02 Feb '09

Lightning Talks =============== Thursday 5th February, 20:00 Roy Griffiths Room, Keble College Lightning talks were a great success last year, and so we're bringing it back for another go this week. For those not familiar with the format, lightning talks is an event where attendees are invited (but not required!) to give a short, 5-10 minute talk on a subject of their choice. Usually, talks are about things you know or have done recently (for example, I'll be doing one on my location-tracking site). They're good fun, and you have a wonderfully captive audience... If you're thinking of giving a talk, then please sling me an email, and we'll publish the list of confirmed talks on Thursday. Even if you don't tell me you're doing one, you're welcome to come along and give one after the people who confirmed - there's usually time! As usual, there will be someone at the Keble lodge to point you towards the room. They may or may not be very cold and located under two feet of snow.
