Subject: [UPHPU] This Thursday's Meeting: How to give a Technical Talk

## Talk Description ##
To kick off the new year we're going to have a talk on, well, giving
talks! If you've ever wanted to give a talk at a usergroup or
conference, but didn't know where to start or just need a little
confidence, this is the presentation to come to!
We'll have Justin Carmony (me) go over how he prepares, practices, and
gives a technical talk. We'll discuss different methods for slides,
different formats, and how to prepare for your audience. We'll finish by
talking about getting submitting Call for Papers (CfPs) to usergroups,
regional conferences, and national conferences.
And, to be honest, this is a great way to help find some speakers for
the rest of the year for UPHPU! :)
