Thanks to all who attended the January AITP meeting at ITT Tech. We had a great time and learned some things about VirtualBox. Dave Cannon gave a presentation showing how to load Ubuntu on a Virtual Machine using the Sun VirtualBox software. Both programs are free and can be downloaded here:

http://www.ubuntu.com/
I also gave a presentation for a "virtual job hunter" using www.indeed.com and Goolge's iGoogle. www.IGoogle.com is Google's RSS Feed reader and Indeed.com is a website that searches all the career websites from the Internet. You can input your desired search criteria and set it up to RSS feed you the job updates EVERYDAY to your IGoogle home page. You just check your home page everyday and you are kept current with all the open positions that are available. This is an invaluable tool when you are ready to hit the job market.
Door prize winner: Curtis Calloway - 16GB Flash Drive
Next Meeting: Saturday January 30th @ 12:30pm in Lab 3
This is an added meeting because we have the opportunity to host a guest speaker from VMWare. Please make sure you are able to attend this meeting. Virtualization is going to be a huge thing when you graduate and any extra information you can gain from this meeting will only help you.
