This is a hands-on guide to creating social network maps from live twitter data.

- Create a visualization that reveals groups, communities and influential participants in the swarm of people mentioning keywords of interest to you.

- Create a visual web of the relationships among the people who mention these keywords when they follow, mention or reply to one another.

- Learn how to calculate key metrics using a free and open add-in for Excel 2007 (NodeXL) that can identify key contributors who play influential roles in your communities.

- Compare your maps to other workshop participants and to a growing gallery of maps of keywords related to conferences like Web2.0, Enterprise 2.0, 140conf, and others.

- Come with your own query terms and make a map during the workshop with our assistance.

Winnaars via Twitter bekend
Ank Bijleveld-Schouten, staatssecretaris van Binnenlandse Zaken en Koninkrijksrelaties, zal tijdens een inspirerende lunchbijeenkomst voor de tweede keer de e-Participatie Award uitreiken. Eén aan het beste eParticipatie initiatief uit de samenleving en één aan het beste eParticipatie-initiatief van een overheid. De eParticipatie Award 2009 is een erkenning voor de getoonde inzet van burgers en overheden om digitale middelen voor burgerbetrokkenheid te gebruiken.

De winnaars zullen tijdens de bijeenkomst ook via Twitter bekend gemaakt worden @Burgerlink #ePAW09.

Na de uitreiking van de eParticipatie Award gaan de aanwezigen met iemand van de Rijksvoorlichtingsdienst en een opiniemaker in debat over hoe ambtenaren omgaan met web 2.0. Wat zijn de gevolgen en de consequenties van web 2.0? Wat kan en mag je wel als ambtenaar, wat mag je niet. De gespreksleiding is in handen van Erwin Blom.

Het debat wordt gevolgd door een lunch waar de deelnemers onder leiding van een aantal inspirerende tafelheren en - dames verder zullen praten over hoe de overheid de mogelijkheden van web 2.0 kan gebruiken om op een transparantere, interactievere en efficiëntere manier te werken.

Meldt je aan door een mail te sturen aan #ePAW09@burgerlink.nl

Entry is free, each slot is about 10-15 minutes, and afterwards we go for beers at a pub near Borough Market.

Here's the tentative line-up (subject to change):

(Speaker TBC), Canonical - Ubuntu Update
Julien Fourgeaud, Symbian - Managing the Symbian community
Jeremy Ruston, Osmosoft - HTML5 and the slow death of Flash
Leisa Reichelt, Disambiguity.com - Drupal 7 Update
Phil Hawksworth, The Team - Playing with each others toys: Developing with open technologies
Rain Ashford, BBC - Open Source Gaming for Handhelds
Robbie Clutton, BT - iPhone development using web technologies

Keep an eye on The Team's Twitter stream for updates.

Also, Andrew Back is bring along his art exhibition "No Numbers", fresh from an outing at the Horse Hospital:

"No Numbers" is a playful response to Foxx's seminal 1980 electronic music work, Mr No. The music is transformed into a sequence of numbers -- digital samples -- which the viewer is encouraged to copy down using the paper and pencils provided.

At a rate of one number per second it would take 4 weeks to transcribe the original 3'18" work in CD quality. The futility of this task reflects the artist's interest in what we may be compelled to do but that which is ultimately, humanly, impossible.

The reduction to a slow, seemingly random series of numbers highlights the essentially approximate nature of digital sampling. This links to the artist's interest in exploring the aesthetic and cultural questions suggested by the analogue-digital distinction.

The title of the piece suggests remix and reappropriation, but also codes for a putative request from the copyright holder of the original work. Downloading music, we're told, is theft. Four weeks of laborious, transcription seems more like pilgrimage."

Each OGN consists of two keynote talks of 15 minutes each. There are also frenetic bursts of socialising, sometimes adverts for other local groups, but always interspersed with two sets of 5-minute-long microslot sessions.

== Keynotes ==

Keynote speakers are invited to talk at Oxford Geek Nights. Our current confirmed keynote is:

* Linked data on data.gov.uk, by Jeni Tennison, independent consultant specialising in markup technologies and the semantic web.
* Drupal, the semantic web marketing engine, by Fintan Galvin, managing director of IO1 Ltd

== Microslots ==

These are five-minute "lightning" talks that anyone can volunteer for. They're easy to do: pick something that excites you, or a project you've worked on that you think might be of interest; then talk to a friendly audience for just five minutes with a handful of slides. Submit your microslot and we'll see you on the night!

Currently confirmed microslots:

* Indie Games Oxford, by Gobion Rowlands
* Theatricalia, by Matthew Somerville
* Open Hardware, by Andrew Katz
* Hyperlocality and access to data (tbc), by Zach Beauvais

== The Pitch ==

The Pitch is a series of 60-second open-mic slots, where you can say whatever you want for at most a minute. Advertise a vacancy, announce an event, big-up a local user group or some other society, offer your services or just say hello.

Interested in pitching? Contact me to reserve a slot.

(OGN15 is a FREE event, sponsored by Torchbox, Guardian Open Platform, Apress and Moo.)
