Give a talk at FSCONS

Friday, May 28th, 2010

The Free Society Conference and Nordic Summit (FSCONS) is being held for the forth time this November here in Gothenburg. The previous years have been really great, with lots of cool participants and and great talks.
This year seems really promising, with a 3d printer that can pretty much build a copy of itself among other things.
Now the organizers are looking for speakers, and it’s time for you to submit your really sweet talk on the amazing thing you’re working on.
They are especially interested in talks around the following subjects: Embedded systems, Infrastructure Monitoring, Makers of the Future, Net Neutrality and Openness, Ethics

Read more here, and don’t wait too long with your proposal!

GNOME 3 video website

Sunday, May 9th, 2010

Currently in the City of Zaragoza, Spain and we’ve had a great time at the GNOME Marketing Hackfest this week.
The focus have been on the upcoming GNOME 3 release this September and I’ve spent most of the time coming up with materials that GNOME fans across the world can use at conferences and LUG’s when spreading the word about the upcoming release.

One thing we want to do in the following weeks is to put together a website with videos showing the new great things such as the new user experience that the shell is offering and other cool stuff as collaboration features with gedit and Tomboy Online among other things. We also want some basic info about the release with a quick FAQ etc.
In it’s initial state, the website will just show a few videos, but will expand as people put together more videos with their favorite things about GNOME 3.

I’ve put together some mockups of how it could look, and if you’re a web developer with skills to put together things such as microblog feeds, photo feeds etc. and want to help with this, please let me know. Any help with this from people who know what they are doing is highly appreciated. :)


For more mockups and details, see the wiki page.

Many thanks for our sponsors this weeks: Zaragoza Municipality, Aragon Regional Government, Technological Institute of Aragon (ITA), ASOLIF, CESLA and the GNOME Foundation of course!
