Southeast LinuxFest 2012

All of you Linux folks: it's almost time again. Southeast LinuxFest 2012 is coming up on June 8-10, 2012, in Charlotte, NC. Go register to attend (there are both free and paid (supporter) options available) and/or submit a proposal to present if you're so inclined/qualified. Either way, if you want to spend a few days hanging out with other linux folks and learn some stuff in the process, plan to attend. :)

Suds of the South 2012

If you're in/around the Tuscaloosa area and like good beer, you should consider the 3rd annual Suds of the South event on Saturday, March 10th, 2012. Representatives from many breweries across the southern USA (including several from here in Alabama) will be on hand, and they'll each have two or three (or maybe even more) kegs with samples of their craft beers. Attendees get a beer stein and unlimited sampling of the various beers (well, until they run out, of course). Tickets are limited, and if last year is any indication, you won't be able to get in if you don't have a ticket already - they'll sell out and won't be able to allow more people in due to fire code compliance.
