29 Mar 19:00 March RUM: Web Interface Essentials and Titanium

We have 2 awesome presentations this month:

  • Marc Grabanski - Web Interface Essentials: developing interfaces with jQuery, jQuery plugins and jQuery UI
  • Kevin Whinnery - iPhone and Android Apps with Titanium (using pure javascript)

The Nerdery Overnight Website Challenge is the weekend prior to this meeting so hopefully some of the participants (myself included) can let us know how it went.

I have yet to locate a sponsor so no free pizza and beer this month. Please feel free to come @ 6:30 and hang out prior to the presentations.

If you or someone you know would like to sponsor, please contact me (Tom Brice) at tomtoday {at} gmail

See you there!
