@twitterapi meetup @ Twitter HQ

[Ryan Sarver]

Hey folks,

We wanted to let you know that we're hosting a little developer
gathering at our new offices this coming Monday afternoon. The meetup
is meant to be an informal gathering of Twitter developers where we
will be available to hear how we can improve and answer any questions
you have. We'll give a quick state of the union of the platform and
then open up for questions from both the audience and from people
online. We want you all to build things that push us in ways we
haven't been thinking about and we'd love to learn how we can provide
a platform that helps you innovate.

We'll be providing developer staples, like beer and pizza, and we'll
leave a bunch of time at the end for everyone to mingle, meet each
other and meet the whole @twitterapi team. We look forward to doing
more events like this regularly in the future and look to improve them
based on your feedback.

*** Please note, while we would love to have everyone join us, space
is limited to around 150 so you'll need to register on
http://twitterapi-meetup.eventbrite.com and you'll need a confirmed
ticket to get into the building.

We look forward to hosting you here.

Ryan

Is there an on-line component to this? TweetChat? Or is it strictly a
physical space event?

Seriously. I'd love to be involved in this but I already have to spend
nearly a grand to fly over there from NYC to attend Chirp. How about a
live feed?

A live feed would be awesome. Also the event says March 1st through April 1st...

Ah ... an early April Fools' joke? ;-) I'm waiting for Linus Torvalds'
April Fool email - I'm guessing this year he'll announce that he is
buying Twitter ;-)

But I'd settle for an IRC channel today and a "Live from Twitter HQ"
broadcast in full streaming fashion at a later date ;-)

[Ryan Sarver]

We won't be having a live video stream of the event this time around.
We will be in the IRC channel and we'll be using Google Moderator to
take questions from people both at the event and people who are
remote. We'll walk before we run :)

[kosso]

Out of interest, will there be any (legal?) reason why any of the
attendants can't stream the meetup to UStream, for example?

Also, do we need to bring a ticket, or will we sign in using
OAuth? ;) heh

[M. Edward (Ed) Borasky]

"The" IRC channel? And where might I find that channel?

Oh, wait - about eating our own dog food - there are chats that work
over Twitter, as I recall ... ;-)

If TwitterHQ isn't opposed I'm sure there's someone who'd be willing
to stream the event...

... recording would be cool too. and probably less hassle to do than
streaming.

We're going to use moderator to drive some of the discussion tonight. Ask and vote for questions here: http://bit.ly/bhRx7L

I missed the meeting - are there log files / hashtag chats anywhere?

[PJB]

I was there and will send along some notes (with my cynic's eye of
course ;) in the morning. On net, it was a good meet-up, and Twitter
employees were there in force to presumably show support for, er,
developer support.
