Mon, Nov 7 -- PLUG front page says the meeting is on Nov 6.  I assume it's typo?

Tue, Nov 8 -- HeckerNest (http://www.meetup.com/HackerNestPTBO/) is at Camp Kawartha Environment Center.  Anyone going for free beer?

Jason

You're correct. It should say (and will in just a moment) say November 7th.

Bill will also demo the Kodi media
  server program and how you can stream media from the internet.

Kudos to Bill - we get there, and there's *NO* Internet connectivity in the building! <^8# In spite of it, Bill went over to Timmy's early and downloaded off-line web pages which he then used to demo Kodi and some of its add-ons, then his VPN as well!

Great thinking, Bill, and a great presentation, considering...! <^8#

Jason

No internet? Wow. I can't remember that ever happening before. Sounds like you made the best of a tough situation, Bill. Very creative! Sorry I missed it!

Thanks Guys!  If I make the Dec. meeting, maybe I can show a bit more of Kodi, if the internet is back up at the meeting room.

Definitely worth the opportunity! And I'm already anticipating the pizza & egg nog (doesn't sound like a great pairing, but hey, it's the festive holiday season!)

Be there or be square, Jason! <^8# And, of course, everybody else, as well! <^8#

Later...!
