On Tuesday, August 21st I will be hosting an East Bay iPhone
Developers Meeting, at 7pm until 10pm in our www.BerkeleyCoworking.com
conference room. The address and directions are on the website, and it
is two blocks from Ashby BART.

We can only fit 25 people, so I'm using the Upcoming RSVP system to
limit the attendees to that number. You can register at
http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/234913/ . If you register and end up
not being able to attend, please change your registration to no so
that someone else can take your place. There is no charge for
attending.

Like iPhoneDevCamp and MacHack, I'd like to focus on things that we
can build together. Some possibilities:

* A microformat for describing iPhone webapp services. This could
include icon, description, pointers to special web pages, etc.

* Support of various microformat standards like hCard.

* An iPhone standard UI and examples for OpenID.

* Exploration of what we can do usefully with Safari Canvas.

If you have some other suggestions on what we should discuss, post them here.

So bring your laptop development environment, your iPhone, and your ideas!

hey Chris,
i wish i could come, but living in Colorado, i dont think there will
ever be a dev conference here. I am working on a wev page, and have
already created logos to show if the site is developed for iPhone, ir
just looks ok on iPhone. I plan to do further work on it we today. I
will create a post explaining the logos and what they stand for.

According to Upcoming we have 6 people so far, so there is plenty of
room if there are people from other parts of the SF Bay Area that
would like to attend. Just RSVP at

I guess I need to read documentation better - I was surprised when
Chris said last night that emailing the photos from the iPhone were
downsized. I tried emailing one photo from my iPhone and it was
480x640 and 90.7kb but when I downloaded it to my PC using a batch
download it was 1600x1200, 363 KB with the data for the photo
including time.

I believe the only way to do a batch download of photos taken with the
iPhone is when the camera is connected and using one of the "camera
connected" apps and there is no way for a web app to complete a
transfer.
(e.g., http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2548/iphone_transfer_pictures_from_iphone_to_xp)

Is there any way to even access general information about the photos
on a iPhone thru a web app (e.g., how many photos, when were they
taken, etc.) ? Assuming there isn't, maybe it would be useful to have
a web app that has meta tags associated with notes taken about the
photos - the app provides a time stamp and a input form where the user
can enter information that can be later match to to the photos on the
computer after the photos have been downloaded as a batch. Probably
too many steps for general use but may be useful for unique situations
such as adding the location and direction the phone was pointing as
the picture was taken.

Back to my original issue ..... is it common knowledge to most that
the photos are downsized when emailed? I do have a tendency to
breeze thru documentation too fast....

Thanks for setting up the evening - I'm looking forward to the summary
