[Bradford] To LinkedIn Or Not LinkedIn...?

[Alice Kaerast]

I think the idea is to use it as a way of promoting all the
individuals and businesses doing Linux stuff around Bradford rather
than promoting Bradlug per se.  It sure beats going through a
recruitment agency.

In terms of promoting the lug itself, I have Moo Minicards ordered -
currently due to arrive the day after the next LUG :(. They're a first
draft and should be good for people to give out to friends.
