Flock makes it easy to share videos and URLS. Tim Massaro will show you how to keep up with your Facebook friends and more using Flock."

Also, Steve Fox will talk about a new hardware project for a future meeting or social activity. The project turns a normal keyboard into an illuminated keyboard. For video preview, see Illuminate Your Keyboard Hack on the Reddit website http://www.reddit.com/r/KLUG/
