Types of Talks
Bullet Talks
We don't always have a formal presentation but we are planning to hold smaller, less formal, group presentations each meeting where there is no formal presentation. These usually last between 5 and 30 minutes, but could run longer and turn into an impromptu full length presentation.
Full Presentation
These are presentations that set out to be longer than 30 minutes. We suggest esoteric talks be Bullet Talks simply as a courtesy to other members who may not be interested in whatever topic is being presented, but we still offer this as an option if the presenter believes the topic is something that warrants more time than a bullet talk and/or applies to both newbies and seasoned members.
Proposed Presentations
If you have an idea for a presentation you would like to give or for a presentation you would like to see someone else to give please post here. Talk:Presentations
Presentations
Xmonad
Description: Xmonad is a simple yet powerful Tiling window manager written in Haskell. Tiling window managers allow you to concentrate on what data is being displayed in a window instead of where to put the window. Cycling through different (customizable) display modes make xmonad a very powerful window manager.

GNU Screen (Talk 2 of Many)

IPython
By: user:Miasma
Description: An interactive enhanced Python shell also good as an enhanced command line shell. It won't completely replace either Bash or full featured Python IDE/editors but it does scratch a few itches in the area between. http://ipython.scipy.org/moin/
