[Baypiggies] newbie nuggets

[Charles Merriam]

+1 for newbie nuggets.

Also, I wouldn't mind some short presentations on 'non-newbie
nuggets'.  For example, I could talk about my (limited) experiences
with using Google Application Engine for five to ten minutes.  It's
much more fun than preparing the long presentations.
