<p>After recently speaking at a PHP user group, I've been invited to be a guest speaker and speak to a group of students at Reading College.</p>
<p>It will be a group of around 40 students who are currently studying Computing and IT with a current focus on web development.</p>
<p>I'm planning to speak about my background in both hardware and software, how I started in software development and with open source, and some of the opportunities that I've had from that, including work opportunities, public speaking and mentoring.</p>
<p>I'm also going to talk about the hobby side of computing for me - using ThinkPad laptops, Linux and managing a homelab and home server, which I think will be interesting and relevant to a group of Computing and IT students.</p>
<p>I have a two hour slot, which I'm sure it will involve some demos, live coding and group programming, which usually happens when I'm giving presentations.</p>
<p>This will be a bit different to all the talks and workshops I've done so far, but I'm looking forward to it and I'm sure will be open to doing similar presentations in the future.</p>
