2009 Attendee Testimonials
“The size of the conference made networking much easier then larger conferences...”
“Everything about the conference was great - the location, the speakers, variety of topics.”
“The presentations were great and pertinent to what CF developers need to know to stay current. Top notch presenters created real value for attendees. The facility was perfect: clean, professional, roomy, convenient and fast WIFI all across the campus.”
“From both a presenter standpoint and an attendee standpoint, I thought you folks did an awesome job. The content was both varied and super-relevant and, at least for the sessions I attended, the speakers were excellent.”
“It was very well run! Having tons of volunteer help made this very successful.”
“Good job of mixing presentation and hands on. I think it covered an excellent range of material, and was rather motivational in the enthusiasm for ColdFusion… a reminder it isn’t dead yet!”

jQuery & JavaScript Camp
Join us for the second NC jQuery and JavaScript camp, an informal day centered around jQuery, the popular JavaScript library, and the JavaScript language itself. We’ll do things in the barcamp style, making a list of topics/presentations at the beginning of the day and seeing where things go from there. If you have something to share, whether it’s simple or fancy, we want to hear about it — talks can range anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour.
Featured speakers will include Scott Gonzalez, lead developer for the jQuery UI project, and Peter Higgins, lead developer for the Dojo JavaScript Toolkit. Proceeds will benefit open-source JavaScript projects, including jQuery and Dojo.

The Triangle microISV Group
A microISV (Independent Software Vendor) is a small software shop, usually with between 1 to 10 people, which is focused on growing organically (not through venture capital) and handles all business tasks (development, sales, PR, etc.) itself.
Are you running or part of a microISV in the Triangle? Or maybe interested in starting one or hearing from those who have? If so, the group is for you. It’s getting started on January 21 in Durham, so check out details on the microISV Group Meetup page and come on out.

Refresh 003 — Lightning Sessions
Durham, NC — Thurs, Jan 24, 2008, 6:30-8:00PM
Starting in 2008, we’ll be using the first monthly meeting of each quarter for “lightning sessions”. Think of this meeting type as a 1.5 hour BarCamp or similar event where members shape the outcome, and the approach toward sharing and discussing is rapid fire. The meeting will consist of 5 predetermined presenters each facilitating a 10 minute lightning session on a predetermined topic. Topics will be a mix of web design, dev, and technology. So for the January meeting, we’re looking for 5 topics and 5 presenters. Please share comments on topic ideas and/or express your willingness to lead a session.
As popular topics become apparent through the comments and presenters attach themselves to topics, finalized presenters and topics will be added here:
1) Twitter for Fun and Profit, Wayne Sutton
2) How’s Haml?, Patrick Reagan
3) Simple Gimp, Joshua Vickery
4) Google Map API Tutorial Primer, Peyton Crump
5) Evaluating Drupal, Julia Kulla-Mader
Location:
Bronto Software, Inc.
Washington Building
324 Blackwell Street
Suite 410
Durham, NC 27701

MySQL Presentation by Jay Pipes
Jay Pipes from MySQL will be speaking at the next PHP/MySQL group meeting on December 12 in Durham.
Jay is the Community Relations Manager for MySQL North America, but don’t let the title fool you. He’s an engaging and knowledgeable speaker with considerable real world experience building, installing and tuning large scale MySQL installations as well as working with some cutting edge companies and individuals. If you’ve ever had a question about MySQL, now’s your chance to get it answered in detail, up close and personal with an expert.
Jay will cover a number of topics relating to performance tuning and scaling, but the meeting will not be limited to just those topics.
If you’ve never been out to a PHP/MySQL group meeting, Dec 12 should be your first one - we’d love to have you there!
