    Nope! Well...maybe smiles. Though it is a good opportunity to network so business or calling cards might be a good idea.

    Questions should be welcomed during presentations, people should refrain from commenting and any thoughts, tidbits, add-ons, FYIs, should be held to the end.

    I agree. All comments should be left for after a speaker's presentation, unless they are asking for input themselves.

    Thank you Larry for a great presentation. Hope you were able to get home OK! Very interesting information about the EXIF metadata that we sometimes ignore on "smart" devices. There is a program I have used in the past to sanitize images before distribution called stripper.exe (sexy-time name!) http://www.... that is a freebie worth checking out. Thanks to all you who came to the meet-up - see everyone soon. Doug

    Larry's talks on Geotag Stalking & Research Fail were informative as well as entertaining. Hopefully those in attendance can spread the word to their friends & family about the dangers of GeoTagging images.

    That was my first time seeing Larry present. He presented very well. He was animated and kept me pretty much focused on his discussion. And he courteously answered / politely observed seemingly non sequitur questions / comments. I would have ranked him higher if his first presentation was cut down to 30-45 minutes and his second presentation was done in about 5 minutes. I did like his positive message at the end of the second one. It's just that my interest was starting to wane the longer the presentation went. For example, I think he used three separate examples to describe the same risk. I don't think all three were needed to convey the same risk.
