Although this is a free event, we are requesting that people register in advance
and we will be limiting attendance to a maximum of 300 attendees. Registration has
almost reached the half way mark. We still have room for about 150 more people. You can reserve
your space by registering here online.
During the main meeting starting at 7:10pm, Googlers Lane LiaBraaten and Arne Roomann-Kurrik
will give us an update on OpenSocial in general. Plus, Lou Moore will give us an update on
Hi5's
OpenSocial application support.
During the networking hour starting at 6:15pm, the plan is to allow for multiple technical
discussions in small groups to be conducted in parallel. To kick this off, we are pleased
to have Jason Chen -- a developer advocate for Android -- on hand to answer your questions
about the latest SDK update. The release of m5-rc14 has introduced many changes to the
Android SDK. You can find more details about these changes at:
For this meeting, there are no other pre-arranged networking hour technical discussions
to announce in advance.
However, this is your user group and the hope is over time to have our members
take more of a leadership role in organizing informal technical discussions around
particular Google technologies. For example, Siamak Ashrafi has stepped forward as
our first Technology Champion to arrange for
Jason Chen's participation this month.
