The Flag and What?

Not only was it the first FAB for 2008 but it was the first time we didn't have our bell! )-:

Who would have thought we could misplace it? Luckily Nigel raided his son's toy box and a tamborine became this month's substitute.

Thanks to everyone who came and made it an enjoyable evening. One of the highlights of the night was the quiz. There was some contention regarding the last question: "What is the name of Linux's open source platform designed for mobile phones?"

The answer, OpenMoko, was indeed correct! Android is Google's open source platform and the other answers provided were invented.

Limo is also a mobile phone platform for Linux.

Despite the contention we had 3 teams tie for first place. In traditional FAB style, the "paper-scissors-rock" play off determined the winning team. Congratulations to the "Trapa" team who won a WIFI hotspot finder and a Wordtracker memory stick.

I am looking forward to the next FAB on the 5th of February which will be sponsored by BondMarvel and Roland Turner. I will post details of the venue next week.
