Madison iPhone User Meetup

clint's picture
Mad-iPhone is (as you might guess) a group of people based around Madison, WI who use the Apple iPhone (or Touch) and enjoy hanging out. The Paradigm follows the model used by user groups around the US. We meet in a convient location (in our case a local coffeehouse) and have minimal organization and NO dues. Our number one priority is to have FUN. If a new face shows up more than once we may ask if they want to be on the email list, but we keep the atmosphere very casual. The rationale for this approach is that just as the iPhone unchained users from the desktop, an iPhone user group can be unchained from the traditional user group style (traditional style: run like a company, meet in a large empty room, pay dues, mission statements etc). Just stop by and say "hello" and join us for lively discussions about cutting edge technology and iPhones or the Touch.

Surviving the IPocalypse: IPv6, Linux, and You

Everyone who has a presence on the web is going to be forced to more about IPv6 in the coming years. Get ahead of the curve! Quick, grab your smartphone, e-reader, computer and family (in that order), pack some supplies, and head for the hills! (except in Kansas, which is too flat.) The Internet as we currently know it is coming to an end! We're running out of host addresses! In a matter of months, not decades they will all be used up. Are you prepared for the single biggest network event since broadband? Say goodbye to your old friends like 209.85.225.99 and hello to 2001:4860:b007::6a (google.com). The existing IP version 4 numbering system with 32-bit addresses is nearly exhausted. In 2013, the last one will be gone. History! But, there is hope of rescue. It's not the cavalry, it's the Internet protocol version 6, with new-fangled 128-bit addresses, and it will impact every networked digital device, router and service you use. What does this all mean?

Building Your Website with ExpressionEngine 2.0

Nonprofits need a website for a number of reasons, including: for presence, information distribution, communication, connection with a wider, broader audience, to create an organizational brand, and more. While the debate on “whether or not your nonprofit needs a website has been settled and filed, the debate on which content management system (CMS) is still wide open. There are a multitude of content management systems (CMS), all offering various benefits for you and your organization. This presentation will discuss ExpressionEngine as one of the many CMSs for you to choose from. It will offer a brief comparison to WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal; tips and techniques on choosing a web developer, future proofing your website, and more.
