BSD: November 2006 Archives

So I did a quick search (using Yahoo!, no less) to see if I could find any local BSD User Groups. A few things came up, but I'm curious as to if any of my readers actually go to these things. Are the groups local to SF Bay area decent?

Due to traffic, not really knowing the area, and not really knowing anyone living in this area, I've been staying at home a lot. In fact, I only go out to go to work. So I guess this weekend would probably be a good time to get out and meet people. I'm living in Belmont, so I'm looking for things that aren't too horribly far away, since all I've got is the motorcycle.

Any suggestions?

Earlier, I mentioned Jason Dixon's presentation at BSDCan. He posted it on Google Video.

BSD is Dying

A tongue-in-cheek look at the history and future of the BSD movement. Modeled after the presentation styles of Lessig and Hardt, the talk provides a light-hearted introspection of the leaders, technologies, and community that forges ahead despite having been left for dead some 15 years past.

He's posted presentations from other conferences on his site, but I suggest watching it via Google Video so his server doesn't get too overloaded. He's got up the iPod format version as well. Handy.
