Videos of Linux (& FOSS) Talks
What’s the best way to understand something? Have somebody else explain it. Of course its not always possible to go and see talks. But lots of talks about Linux and FOSS are videoed and published to the internet!
The talks give an introduction to all sorts of interesting topics, such as: rsnapshot; AJAX; ReactOS; power saving for laptops; linux training/certification; Mark Shuttleworth’s FOSS ‘challenges’; etc – there’s something for all interests. Practically no prior knowledge about the topic is needed for most of the videos.
- FOSDEM (Free and Open Source Development European Meeting) has videos of the main talks since 2005 although if you explore the mirrors you will will also find so called ‘lightning talks’ (aka short talks) among other videos not linked from the main pages.
- LugRadio Live has videos of most of its talks (very interesting even if you’re not a fan of their podcast!): 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and USA 2008.
- HantLUG (my local LUG, although I’ve never been), has videoed all of its talks.
I’m sure there must be more videos around, determined to hide from me, so I’d appreciate anyone with links to other groups who have similar videos!
