I like the idea Lukas, but I don't think we had any begginner friendly
workshops penned in for this hacktionlab, as these ones tend to be
(intentionaly) more technie.

I think perhaps the Network23 stuff would be suitable, as we're not
going to cover tech, just what it does, how it works, and ask for anyone
interested in getting on board.

Ben G and I also did a talk at the Bristol Anarchist Bookfair last year,
that included covering email security, our booklet and barncamp amongst
topics: perhaps we (me and Ben, or any of us hacktionlabbers) could
cover this for the café attendees as a general introduction.

Apart from that perhaps two spaces might be useful so that we don't
technically scare anyone off!

cool.  I'd like to show Catfish, it's about the dangers of meeting
people on Facebook.
