<p>LugRadio is an event that covers a range of topics about free software, Open Source, digital rights, technology and more. Combined with a compelling list of speakers, exhibitors and birds of a feather sessions, this event is said to offer what feels like a combination of a rock concert and a computer conference. To bring this unique atmosphere to San Francisco, LugRadio Live USA 2008 USA will have around <a href="http://lugradio.org/live/USA2008/speakers" target="_blank">30 speakers</a> including Miguel de Icaza and Ian Murdock, <a href="http://lugradio.org/live/USA2008/exhibition" target="_blank">over 20 exhibitors</a>, an eclectic range of BOF and other sessions, and the live recording of LugRadio in front of an audience.</p>
