Change of plan at OGN16

There's been a change in the speakers for Oxford Geek Night 16 on Wednesday 17 February. We're really happy that Chris Thorpe will still be giving his keynote talk, about how social media is all about the social and not about the media. Alongside Chris' talk will be a keynote from Oxford's very own Garrett Coakley, who will be talking about how to run a successful online community.

Garrett's well placed to give this talk, having been an administrator of evolt.org and instrumental in the now very successful Oxford Flickr group, which has recently exhibited in central Oxford. He's also fresh from discussing these very issues at the Leeds GeekUp in 20/20 form, so it should be pretty exciting. If not, then I know where he lives.

Brillskills. OGN16 is shaping up to be pretty darn fine, though I do say so myself. Be there, or don't, fool.
