Meetup started with number of new guys introducing themselves. It was fun and some “jokes are thrown on the table” . @tarekkassar was live tweeting from the meetup. ” If you love open-source, join #uaelug, all people here will be your friends ” – he said on twitter.

After the meetup it was very clear to everyone that why we use linux and what is the importance of this Operating system. Some topics we discussed was about how you use a computer in its maximum possible ways, that cannot be achieved using propitiatory systems. It explained how to make computer to do more stuff than, just following some ready made “products”. Experts explained how we take challenges and do understand how software really works.

More than 20 Linux minded people met on venue at Flip Media meeting rooms, yesterday evening. The Meetup went for about 2 hours. It was an amazing experience that people with various level of experience in Linux and computer systems in common, talked about themselves and the importance of Linux everywhere.

There was people with experience of more than 10 years, hackers, desktop users, programmers and people never used Linux in the group. We discussed mainly on how to proceed to make this group work for everyone And shared some of interesting experiances.Here is some pictures.
