March Web608 Meeting (not a Geek Dinner)

Andrew Shell's picture

After a long hiatus, I'm restarting the monthly Web608 Meetings, which are in addition to the geek dinners.

This month we have two speakers taking about various Google technologies. In addition to these two talks I hope to have some discussion about what people want from these meetings and this website moving forward. If we have some time at the end people are free to do impromptu lightning talks.

This months event will be held in the Network 222 Training Room
222 West Washington Avenue
Madison, WI
608-320-1138
Thursday, March 25th from 7-9 pm

Mapping Natural Resources, Alan Koskelin

Learn about using Google Maps to visualize natural resources monitoring.

See interactive maps take shape from GPS coordinates in a public database of water quality measurements.

App Engine Overview, Greg Tracy

How you can quickly and cheaply experiment with new web application ideas using Google's cloud platform.

Greg will provide an overview of the App Engine platform, and walk through a couple of his personal projects that were built on it. Plus bonus material! He will demo how easy it is build telephony applications using Twilio.

I'm hoping to make these monthly events. The next two are penciled in for 4/22 and 5/27 (subject to change). So if you're interested in presenting at either of these events please contact me at andrew@web608.org.
