Alright... don't laugh too loud...

What about a kind of "show and tell"?

Everyone who comes to the meeting gets up and talks for a minute or
two about something cool they did on Linux.  For example:
- used laptop running Linux as a wireless gateway for Playstation2 online games
- set up spam filtering/virus scanning for ISP mail
- archive digital photos
- convert old albums and cassette tapes to MP3 format
- keep track of family names and addresses via LDAP

It can also be just on your most useful applications, like:
- CD burning software
- email retrieval/filtering
- digital photo management
- information management (with a database)
- audio/video

It doesn't have to be very long, or detailed, 5 or 10 minutes is
enough.  Outline what you did, what software you used/wrote to get it
to work, and if it is GPL/FOSS, where you can get a copy.

The only real criteria that I think should be imposed is (a) no more
than 15 minutes per person, and (b) EVERYONE must participate.

What do you think?
