Special September Meeting THIS WEEK Wednesday 14th

[Timmy Crawford]

In light of Ignite being on the last Wednesday of this month, we are
holding our monthly meeting this week, September 14th at 5:30 PM at
G5. Simeon Bateman will be cruising down from PDX to talk about
Node.js. Should be a fantastic talk:

Title: Node.js and You

Node.js is the hottest thing the tech world has had to talk about this
year. In case you didn't know, Node.js is a server platform for
application development that makes building high-availability APIs and
real-time applications really simple. And the best news is that you
code for it with JavaScript. In this session, learn what Node.js is
and what it means to use a nonblocking infrastructure. We'll talk
about why JavaScript is well suited to this kind of environment, and
then we'll show how to leverage Node.js to build applications for the
browser, mobile, and beyond.
