JUG World Tour: Utrecht JUG (#29)

On September 12th, I was invited to speak at the Utrecht JUG together with Hanno Embrechts. That was an ideal moment to grab my camera and microphones to interview the organisers and some of the guests. So this is a bit a special edition of the Foojay Podcast as it’s also available with video! An experiment that brought me great pleasure. I hope you like it too! So … let’s time travel and get back to Utrecht when I got the organizers before the camera just minutes before the first guests arrived…Video is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VzhDmWZilI4GuestsMichel van Dongenhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/michelvandongen/https://twitter.com/VanDongenMWillem van de Griendthttps://www.linkedin.com/in/willemvandegriendt/https://twitter.com/Willemvdg Elias Nogueirahttps://www.linkedin.com/in/eliasnogueira/https://twitter.com/eliasnogueiraGerard Meijwaardhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/gerard-meijwaard-83a5827/https://twitter.com/GerardMeiHanno Embregtshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/hannoembregts/https://twitter.com/hannotifyhttps://foojay.social/@hannotifyPodcastHost: Frank Delportehttps://foojay.social/@frankdelportehttps://twitter.com/FrankDelporteLinkshttps://www.meetup.com/Utrecht-Java-User-Group/https://www.linkedin.com/company/javautrecht/https://twitter.com/utrechtjugContent00:00 Intro00:45 Michel van Dongen about the history and organisation of UtrechtJUG03:10 Impact of Covid and meeting in person04:24 Motivation to organise a JUG05:57 Relationship with NLJUG and other Dutch JUGs07:18 Willem van de Griendt about his role in UtrechtJUG08:23 Why Willem loves the Java community09:40 What to learn from JUG events10:56 Future plans for UtrechtJUG12:05 Guests are arriving12:18 Interview with guest, Elias Nogueira13:27 Interview with guest, Gerard Meijwaard14:40 Introduction of Hanno Embregts16:01 About speaking at JUGs and conferences16:47 Being editor of the NLJUG Java Magazine18:11 Hanno on stage18:30 Outro
