Upstairs at the Jericho Tavern
Oxford Geek Nights offer a chance for web developers and designers in the local area to get together, share their skills and talk about new ideas, techniques and technologies.
Each OGN consists of two keynote talks of 15 minutes each. There are also frenetic bursts of socialising, sometimes adverts for other local groups, but always interspersed with two sets of 5-minute-long microslot sessions.
OGN15 starting earlier!
Following feedback, the OGN15 keynotes will begin at eight o’clock, a full half hour earlier. The rest of the line-up will similarly start and finish that little bit earlier. This should be more convenient for those having to head to homes outside the ring road.
Keynotes
Keynote speakers are invited to talk at Oxford Geek Nights. Our current confirmed keynote talk is:
- Linked data on data.gov.uk, by Jeni Tennison, independent consultant specialising in markup technologies and the semantic web.
Microslots
These are five-minute "lightning" talks that anyone can volunteer for. They’re easy to do: pick something that excites you, or a project you’ve worked on that you think might be of interest; then talk to a friendly audience for just five minutes with a handful of slides. Submit your microslot and we’ll see you on the night!
Currently confirmed microslots:
- Indie Games Oxford, by Gobion Rowlands
- Theatricalia, by Matthew Somerville
- Open Hardware, by Andrew Katz
