Geek in the Park 2008

27 June 2008 | Owen Gregory

This summer, coming to a park near you (well, a park in Leamington Spa, actually) is Geek in the Park 2008. It's a free, all-day family event featuring a relaxing picnic during the afternoon followed by presentations from Jon Hicks and Drew McLellan in the evening.

It’s been two years since the first Geek in the Park event, organized, like this one, by Trevor Morris of the Multipack. The 2006 event was a great success, with fun and games in Jephson Gardens during the day and talks from Patrick H Lauke and Bruce Lawson on pragmatic Web accessibility.

Once again, the event will be held in Leamington Spa, starting at noon on Saturday 9 August. This year Jon Hicks will present Pixel Pushing: An Introduction to Icon Design and Drew McLellan will tell us What Brian Cant Never Taught You About Metadata.

For more details, including directions, visit the Geek in the Park site where you can sign up for a reminder nearer the time.

Don’t miss it! It’s free!
