2012 Lightning Talks Signup

2012-02-14T17:07:12Z

Schafdog: /* Thursday, 10:15-11:00am [9 slots] */

'''Sign up for Lightning Talks!!'''

Lightning talks are scheduled on all three days of the conference. A lightning talk is a fast-paced 5 minute talk on a topic of your choosing. Sign-ups for lightning talks will open at 10 am on Tuesday, February 7, immediately following the first keynote.

Mark Jason Dominus has a nice page [http://perl.plover.com/lt/lightning-talks.html about lightning talks], which includes this summary of why you might want to do one:

''Maybe you've never given a talk before, and you'd like to start small. For a Lightning Talk, you don't need to make slides, and if you do decide to make slides, you only need to make three.''

''Maybe you're nervous and you're afraid you'll mess up. It's a lot easier to plan and deliver a five minute talk than it is to deliver a long talk. And if you do mess up, at least the painful part will be over quickly.''

''Maybe you don't have much to say. Maybe you just want to ask a question, or invite people to help you with your project, or boast about something you did, or tell a short cautionary story. These things are all interesting and worth talking about, but there might not be enough to say about them to fill up thirty minutes.''

You might also like Mark Fowler's's [http://www.perl.com/pub/2004/07/30/lightningtalk.html Advice for Giving a Lightning Talk].

So this restaurant which is a 10 minute ($15) cab ride away and which also serves Brazilian cuisine (including the ever-tasty feijoada) will have to do.

"Tuesday, February 7, 9 PM or shortly after -Courtyard Ballroom"

Adam Wead and Michael Klein are organizing a viewing of [http://www.getlamp.com/ Get Lamp: The Text Adventure Documentary]

It's not about Linux, Apache, MySQL or PHP, but if you don't have a one, you might get eaten by a grue.

If there is additional interest, there may be another viewing this week.

===Morning Run Wednesday===
I (Ray Schwartz) will not be running on Wednesday. Though several others have said that they will meet at 7am in the Hotel Lobby. I would recommend to walk straight down west to the water front and turn right-heading north, following the pedestrian path. It goes on or some miles, so it is a good choice.

===Veg*n Dinner Wednesday===

We'll pick a place with lots of veg*n options to go eat Wednesday for dinner. Vegetarians and non-vegetarians welcome.

*[http://lovinghut.us/seattle/index.html Loving Hut] Modest price. 1 mile from hotel. Will do bill splitting if we let them know up front.

===Meat-Up Dinner Wednesday===

RIP Meat-Up. Going to Amazon for hurricanes.

(if you do not find a suitable burger joint, there are also some top-notch steakhouses in Seattle. Both the Metropolitan Grill and El Gaucho are delightful if folks are OK with $50 steaks. Just FYI, not trying to hijack your meat-up, Cary!. -mjgiarlo)

Put your name and any food limitations, we're meeting in the hotel lobby at 6pm.

===Wednesday afternoon tour===
Tour on Tuesday was nice, but less of a "behind the scenes" experience than I'd hoped. The tour guide talked a bit about the building, architecture and some of the design aspects that worked (and didn't). Unfortunately the Wed tour will not include the automatic materials sorting room. Again, max 20 people.

Also, Wednesday needs a group wrangler.

Meet the Anne Repass, your tour guide by the gift shop, just inside the 5th Ave entrance.

2012 Craft Brew Drinkup

2012-02-08T18:30:59Z

Schafdog: /* Sign up */

=== Logistics ===

'''Wednesday, February 8, after 9 PM, in Room 1001''' (room sponsored by [http://yourmediashelf.com/ MediaShelf])

The Craft Brew Drinkup at Code4lib 2012 is all about sharing and enjoying good beer with fellow conference attendees. The idea is to bring bottles of your favorite beers.

While you're not obligated to bring ''local beers'' from whereever you're from, participants are definitely encouraged to bring beer that you think is special and might be somewhat hard for others outside your area to find. Homebrew is especially welcome. Sign up below with your name, where you're from, and list a few brews or bottles you're thinking about (but not necessarily committing to) bringing along. You can also request that people bring specific beer if you so desire, but don't necessarily expect that your wishes will be granted.

''If you do not check bags or otherwise cannot arrange to bring beer from where you call home, you may be interested in buying beer from a local beer store. See the "Buying Beer in Seattle" section below for suggestions.''

=== Suggestions ===

'''Add using the following format: (person who you are making the request of): (your request) - (your name)'''

* Unnamed persons from the Keystone State: Sly Fox, any special Weyerbacher - anarchivist
* anyone: Boulevard smokestack series - danwho
* whosoever brought blueberry stout last year, more of that please - jastirn
* Oregonians/PNW folks: Deschutes Hop Henge (cuz it's seasonal) and Obsidian (cuz I like it) - anarchivist
* younga/Seattlites: Georgetown Donkey Deux; Georgetown Braggott - anarchivist
* if by chance anyone is coming from Salt Lake City: I would love Big Bad Baptist from Epic. Or the Wit if it's available again (I think it's the wrong season though). - HLPitts

=== Buying Beer in Seattle ===

from an email to the code4lib list:

: I can think of three good bottleshops (all w/ taps in case you want a growler) that are located on bus lines from downtown:
:
: * [http://bottleworksbeerstore.blogspot.com/ Bottleworks]: Probably the shop I frequent the most. Take the 16 to Wallingford.
: * [http://www.lastdropbeershop.com/ Last Drop]: Take the 71,72, or 73 north from downtown and get off at 80th.
: * [http://www.seattlebeerauthority.com/ Beer Authority]: probably the quickest trip from downtown on the 522. get off at the 125th St stop in Lake City and walk north a couple of blocks.
: * [http://www.fullthrottlebottles.com/ Full Throttle Bottles]: Buses 131, 106, 23 --about 30 minute ride.
: * Also, QFC (large grocery store chain) usually has a great selection.
: * [http://taphousegrill.com/index.html Tap House Grill]: It's a bar with 160 beers on tap, but they do growlers. 6th and Pike.
: * Lots of other pub/beer places noted on [http://g.co/maps/4m5pk the map]

=== Disclaimers ===

* This is an unofficial event organized by attendees of Code4lib 2012.
* All guests at the Drinkup must be 21 years of age or over with a [http://www.cherylslastcall.com/pdfs/Acceptable-ID-Forms.pdf valid form of ID].
* Any participation in the Drinkup is at your own risk.
* All guests are expected to drink responsibly and behave appropriately.

=== Packing and Shipping Beer ===

If you're flying to Code4lib, you will have to consider how to bring your beer. Some attendees in past years have packed beer in their checked luggage, and others have purchased a beer shipper that was checked separately as luggage. In any event, '''you will not be able to bring beer in carryon luggage.'''

The following are links to resources that provide info on packing your beer for transit.

==="Get Lamp" viewing Tuesday (9 PM) ===

"Tuesday, February 7, 9 PM or shortly after -Courtyard Ballroom"

Adam Wead and Michael Klein are organizing a viewing of [http://www.getlamp.com/ Get Lamp: The Text Adventure Documentary]

It's not about Linux, Apache, MySQL or PHP, but if you don't have a one, you might get eaten by a grue.

If there is additional interest, there may be another viewing this week.

===Morning Run Wednesday===
I (Ray Schwartz) will not be running on Wednesday. Though several others have said that they will meet at 7am in the Hotel Lobby. I would recommend to walk straight down west to the water front and turn right-heading north, following the pedestrian path. It goes on or some miles, so it is a good choice.

===Veg*n Dinner Wednesday===

We'll pick a place with lots of veg*n options to go eat Wednesday for dinner. Vegetarians and non-vegetarians welcome.

*[http://lovinghut.us/seattle/index.html Loving Hut] Modest price. 1 mile from hotel. Will do bill splitting if we let them know up front.

RIP Meat-Up. Going to Amazon for hurricanes.

(if you do not find a suitable burger joint, there are also some top-notch steakhouses in Seattle. Both the Metropolitan Grill and El Gaucho are delightful if folks are OK with $50 steaks. Just FYI, not trying to hijack your meat-up, Cary!. -mjgiarlo)

===Evergreen/Koha and friends dinner Wednesday===
Put your name and any food limitations, or suggestions of places to go. We'll figure where we're going later. For now, let's assume we're meeting in the hotel lobby at 6pm.

Since I don't see any seafood restaurant for dinners I'm (Anoop) suggesting this place and can make reservations:

===Wednesday afternoon tour===
Tour on Tuesday was nice, but less of a "behind the scenes" experience than I'd hoped. The tour guide talked a bit about the building, architecture and some of the design aspects that worked (and didn't). Unfortunately the Wed tour will not include the automatic materials sorting room. Again, max 20 people.

Also, Wednesday needs a group wrangler.

Meet the tour guide by the gift shop, just inside the 5th Ave entrance.

Adam Wead and Michael Klein are organizing a viewing of [http://www.getlamp.com/ Get Lamp: The Text Adventure Documentary]

If there is additional interest, there may be another viewing this week.

So far 4 have signed up for both Tuesday and Wednesday. Let's meet in the Lobby at 7am on Tuesday, and we will decide how to do Wednesday.

Note that they have some excellent non-meat options for any meat groupies that want to hang with us.

(if you do not find a suitable burger joint, there are also some top-notch steakhouses in Seattle. Both the Metropolitan Grill and El Gaucho are delightful if folks are OK with $50 steaks. Just FYI, not trying to hijack your meat-up, Cary!. -mjgiarlo)

'''Restaurants more than 1 miles from the hotel'''

[http://bravehorsetavern.com/ Brave Horse Tavern] (another Tom Douglas, good regional beer list, yummy food. Near South Lake Union. Would require a ride on the South Lake Union Trolley (SLUT), but it's easy to get to/use from downtown.

[http://www.temperodobrasil.net/ Tempero do Brasil] I was excited to see Ipanema Grill 6 blocks from the hotel, unfortunately it seems to be closed for good. So this restaurant which is a 10 minute ($15) cab ride away and which also serves Brazilian cuisine (including the ever-tasty feijoada) will have to do.

==="Get Lamp" viewing Tuesday (9 PM) ===

"Tuesday, February 7, 9 PM or shortly after -Courtyard Ballroom"

Adam Wead and Michael Klein are organizing a viewing of [http://www.getlamp.com/ Get Lamp: The Text Adventure Documentary]

It's not about Linux, Apache, MySQL or PHP, but if you don't have a one, you might get eaten by a grue.

If there is additional interest, there may be another viewing this week.

===Morning Run Wednesday===
I (Ray Schwartz) am organizing a morning run for anyone that would like to join me. It will be around 5 to 6 miles. I usually run a 10 minute per mile pace. And I would like to start around 7am. Select which days Tuesday or Wednesday or both mornings. Choose the date you wish via this Doodle link http://www.doodle.com/3tbigutqvkda5ib8

Link to the course map is at http://www.runningmap.com/?id=351428.

So far 4 have signed up for both Tuesday and Wednesday. Let's meet in the Lobby at 7am on Tuesday, and we will decide how to do Wednesday.

===Veg*n Dinner Wednesday===

Note that they have some excellent non-meat options for any meat groupies that want to hang with us.

(if you do not find a suitable burger joint, there are also some top-notch steakhouses in Seattle. Both the Metropolitan Grill and El Gaucho are delightful if folks are OK with $50 steaks. Just FYI, not trying to hijack your meat-up, Cary!. -mjgiarlo)

===Evergreen/Koha and friends dinner Wednesday===
Put your name and any food limitations, or suggestions of places to go. We'll figure where we're going later. For now, let's assume we're meeting in the hotel lobby at 6pm.

==Full Day==

=== Developing applications using REST web services ===

Been hearing about web services but don’t know where to start to build something? Have you built applications that use read services but are stumped by OAuth, Content Negotiation and HTTP Headers? Come dig in and learn how to build applications that interact with both read and write REST services. We’ll cover the basic principles and practices of REST services and discuss the Atom Publishing Protocol as a REST service and its extensibility. The group will examine and test the CouchDB HTTP API by building a simple list creation tool. You’ll learn how OCLC’s platform web services leverage Atom to expose the data and business processes from OCLC’s library systems. By the end of the session, you’ll know the basic principles of REST services, be able to perform Create, Read, Update and Delete operations via REST and be able to authenticate to REST services via API keys and OAuth.

Come ready to learn and code!

==Half Day Morning==

=== Linkfest ===

We've had talks and sessions galore about Linked Data at code4lib in past years. Let's focus on linking. Bring data you want to publish and link to or link from and your ideas about new ways we can push data linking into being part of our regular approach to how we put our libraries' content and services on the web. At the start of the session we'll run a quick poll to see who wants to link to what and how, and we'll pair or group up and get to work from there. May a kajillion links bloom!

If you need an "intro to linked data" we can prep a good list of readings/talks to review before you come. But please come ready to link!

=== Git -r done ===

A session to cover all things Git, everyone's favorite distributed version control system. This session should cover a little bit of the history of Git, how it works, and how it's different than other version controls systems like SVN. Practical application should also be covered, including how to clone existing repos and contribute code back to them, how to host your own repository, and best practices for setting up a distributed network.

Looking for attendees with real-life Git experience to share it, so we can all broaden our understanding of possible use-cases and nifty advanced features.

=== Blacklight ===

This session will be walk-through of the architecture of Blacklight and what we have been improving since the rails 3 upgrade. In addition to the architecture of the software, we will also briefly discuss the architecture of the Blacklight community and what has made it successful so far.

For part of the session we will install Blacklight live and get it up and running. This install demo will include a How-To on basic customizations in Blacklight using a test-driven approach (one of the cornerstones of the Blacklight community).

For more information about Blacklight see our wiki ( http://projectblacklight.org/ ) and our GitHub repo ( https://github.com/projectblacklight/blacklight ). We will also send out some brief instructions beforehand for those that would like to setup their environments to follow along and get Blacklight up and running on their local machines.

=== [[Digging into metadata: context, code, and collaboration]] ===

Working with library/archival metadata is difficult. This preconference will tackle pressing questions and will show some of the intricacies of metadata (including AACR2/MARC) with exercises to demonstrate why inconsistencies exist in the data. What steps can the cataloging & metadata community take to help improve the quality of this data? What tools & techniques could help? Rules have evolved over time leaving dirty legacy data. Systems have impacted--and will continue to impact--data structure & design. How can this data be aggregated and refined for use in a new emerging data environments? What assumptions can safely be made and when do you need to inquire about local practice? We will end with a hack-fest where you can ask questions of experienced catalogers and get help with your metadata related problems. Bring your laptops and data.

=== "Geo" ===
This session will explore, we hope collaboratively, the presentation of objects on maps. There will be a section on workflow, a section on discovering objects via "geobrowse," a section discovery of objects via "geosearch," and an exploration of the discovery and presentation of geo-referenced images (e.g. historic maps). There will be open discussion on other approaches to map-based discovery. Emphasis will be placed on simplicity of workflow and implementation. Technologies include: Atom, Django, Solr, and OpenLayers.
