Last year, we started a project called utos-conman.  This project in about 3-5 months became the system that ran the speaker [...]

Craziness: LFNW, OLPC and UTOS, oh my!

It’s been a crazy month here in my little part of the world. My favorite organization, the Utah Open Source Foundation announced it’s conference theme, dates and location. I’m really excited about this year’s possibilities and I keep hearing good things that people want to do during UTOSC 2009. Now: Life has been hectic, but [...]

Wait for it… Wait for it… NOW!!

In the next 3 weeks, I will be among the busiest people I know.  Probably the only people busier are Presidential hopefuls, Olympic organizers and sadly, those fighting in Georgia.  The reason I am writing this post is to help me remember what I have left to complete between now and the Utah Open Source [...]

UTOSF HackNight – Tonight: Possible Change of Venue

Well, it appears that I am one of the many victims of Qwest and their lurid line noise issues, thus no DSL for me! Because of this, I’m in the process of scrambling for a new location for our UTOSF HackNight this evening. If anyone who’s coming would like to donate their location, or know [...]
