MXUG is the Melbourne 'X' Users Group where people give short talks on anything tech related that interests them. It's been really popular, mainly due to the diversity of the talks. We'd like to do a similar thing for the next Girl Geek Dinner to spice things up a bit. These informal talks (15 mins max) are a chance to practice your presentation skills and explore an idea you are interested - you don't have to be an expert in a topic to give a talk!

See Facebook for more details.
