O'Day is happening on the 24th of February.

(I'm not doing this, but I really think we should have t-shirts made by O'Day. ["JamesAndrewartha"]'s idea of "In Soviet Russia, Computer Clubs You" is awesome, we should get PennyWalkaden to do one of her pixelised drawings of a big club on a computer screen. -- DavidAdam) (Actually, yellow sickle and pixelised club would be awesome too.)

(I can put in the UCC order as the same time as the UniSFA order if someone asks politely. -- ChrisBobridge)

Grabbing New Members

As discussed at committee, we need to have some gimmicks at the O'Day stall.

Ideas include:

• Robots ([DAG]?)
• SMS screen? I don't actually remember this in 2003, but we could lug the TV down and it might work...
• More people in the clubroom (have music playing and stuff, not too loud, maybe gaming or something).

Posters

I'll make up some (2-4) big A0 posters at work on Thursday afternoon, and we can carry an old rack door down to stick them on, so perhaps we can think of some slogans?

{UCC Logo} Yes, we like computers a lot. So?

{UCC Logo} Home of Australia's only Internet- connected Coke machine

If we can come up with enough words, I would love to do a web 2.0 takeoff of one of those "tag" thingies, where some words are bigger than others (with UCC being the biggest word). Here is a start (some reordering required):

• python, perl, computers, email, Internet, Fedora, Ubuntu, Linux, BSD, Solaris, C, WWW, Usenet, Ruby, Django, Rails, coffee, Java, caffeine, pizza, "hack the kernel", Tru64, Alpha, Sparc, IRIX, Indigo, MIPS, algorithms, djikstra, graph, GNOME, GTK, Motif, HPUX, games, OpenGL, Windows, Microsoft, Explorer, Firefox, Seamonkey, Thunderbird, Outlook, GNU, bazaar, Soviet Russia, submit, programming, visualisation, music, graphics, networks, Debian, Gentoo

Marketing Spiel

What do we need to mention to new people? (I'll throw my marketing pitch on here at some stage - DavidAdam)

i think we should mention that the UCC is very cool, it has been around longer than the CS department, and that we have computers. ( [ZAR] )

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES MENTION WorldOfWarcraft!
