[20:49] hello! [21:01] SD ubuntu hour was a lil weak :) [21:06] how many did you have kdub [21:28] 2 [21:28] need a better marketing team [21:34] kdub_: that's all I get in Lake Forest sometimes. :) [21:50] 2 is better than none! [21:57] yeah I've had hours even in SF with just 2 of us [22:01] MTV hour conflicts with bay area python UG this month. so … we'll see :) [22:04] it usually conflicts with baylisa [22:04] so maybe you'll see an improvement :) [22:04] hehe maybe [22:04] this is the special pycon wrapup meeting though. i'm a little bummed to miss it [22:05] heard pycon is here next year though so [22:05] ah [22:05] I hadn't heard that -- that's great! [22:06] http://us.pycon.org/2012/ [22:07] wow, the gent in their countdown timer has a full unix beard [22:07] Santa Clara, yay! [22:07] * akk starts thinking about topics for talk proposals [23:06] jono: as preparation for expanding my 5-minute UpScale talk on effective Free Software advocacy into a full presentation, I'm thinking of writing a series of blog posts for Planet Ubuntu on each key point. [23:07] jono: do you have any hints or tips on how to make that kind of series more effective? [23:17] use hand gestures :) [23:18] iheartubuntu: I always do while speaking... but I try to be a little more subdued while typing. ;) [23:18] :D [23:20] sounds interesting [23:20] Hmm, I realized that SCaLE doesn't host slides for the UpScale talks and therefore my slides aren't hosted anywhere. I shuold probably put them up somewhere. [23:21] nhaines: btw, my slides are here: http://princessleia.com/presentations/FindingHelpInUbuntuScale9x.pdf (.odp too) [23:21] if you need them for the site [23:21] pleia2: thanks! I do and I need to gather them because SCaLE wants them too. :) [23:26] I really like the new LibreOffice icons. http://ubuntuone.com/p/jAT/ [23:41] not to boost the egos of nhaines and pleia2 but you both did a *very* excellent job on your speeches at SCaLE9x [23:45] thanks iheartubuntu :) [23:45] for those of you with "guilty" pets... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8ISzf2pryI [23:49] when making a presentation, has anyone considered using URL shorteners like goo.gl for long URLs? Especially in print like in magazines it sure is nice to have a short URL to type in [23:53] I never put URLs in presentations. The only reason I had one in my UpScale talk was that it was the easiest way to credit Randall Munroe for the xkcd comic. [23:54] I tend to assume people will download the slides later (it's what I do) [23:55] pleia2: I'd put a reference slide in the back, for the downloaded set. But I don't put URLs in anything I'm talking over. [23:56] But I tend to make my slides pretty brief. [23:57] Especially for UpScale, when they were going to be 20 seconds a piece. :) [23:57] Hope one of my shots makes it into Natty... http://www.flickr.com/photos/iheartubuntu/
