This is Google Technology User Group meeting; developers, students and entrepreneurs are welcome. This is the first such meeting in Chicago -- it is loaded with interesting information, it is big, it is ambitious, don't miss it.
Thanks to courtesy of Google Inc. we will meet at their facility at 20 W. Kinzie, Chicago.
We will have a lot of short 15 minute presentations to stimulate the ideas and raise questions after which you will be able to talk to the speaker and Google employee about what sparked your interests.
The theme of this meeting is:
"Google tools to jump-start your next idea into a social networking start-up"
We hope you will walk out of this meeting super-charged to create the next big thing, and that this group will become an incubator for a lot of new ventures in Chicago land area.
