Technology / Open source group

BoB_BoT

Hey all,
Just letting ye know that there's a Technology / Opensource / Linux group in Athlone. If you're interested feel free to post or if you want to come along to one of the meetings, you're more than welcome. We're trying to make the meetings and events regular, with one this coming Wednesday (8th of September) in Seans Bar (pub down by the Castle).

Essentially, it's just a group that meets to talk about tech related stuff and have a bit of a laugh. Topics are whatever you want to talk as it's very informal Anyone's welcome, students, lecturers, business people, beginners, professionals etc..

Come along if you want, or keep an eye on the website (www.athug.com) to see when the next meeting / event is coming up.

Cheers
-Rob
