Hello Everyone, I just wanted to drop a quick note to the whole group about my presentation tonight. My goal is to reach a wide audience regarding the many cool FOSS games, so its really be for everyone - technical or not. If you have friends or family (at any technical literacy level) who might be interested please invite them to join us. Oh, and don't worry I will get us out before 9pm so we can all witness the presidential "talking point exchange." =P Free Fun - Open Source Video Games Date and Time :: Wednesday, October 15, 2008 from 6:30 pm to 9:00 pm Location :: MIT Building E51, Room 376 Summary :: An exploration of Free and Open Source (FOSS) Video Games Abstract What do you think of when you hear the words "open source"? Probably not video games -- but perhaps you should! Quality Open Source games exist in nearly every genre of gaming from Action and Adventure to Education and Simulation. In this presentation we will journey through an industry overview, outline the top FOSS games in most genres, examine the science/value of Video Games, and highlight Open Source game servers. You will see how Free and Open Source (FOSS) games/options offer something fun for everyone: the casual gamer, educator, non-technical user, IT/business person or and even super l33t video gamer. Join Joseph Guarino of Evolutionary IT (www.evolutionaryit.com) in a lighthearted exploration of the wonderfully fun world of Free and Open Source (FOSS) Video Games. Looking forward to seeing you all, Joseph Guarino Evolutionary IT - Best Practice IT(tm) Website: www.evolutionaryit.com Blog: www.evolutionaryit.com/blog 888.404.5074 (Office) 617.953.9514 (Mobile)
