We have a very special meeting for the upcoming October meeting.  What makes it special?  We will have a Site Advertising and Traffic Analysis specialist to cover the marketing side, followed by a presentation on App Engine integrated with other services.  Essentially, you'll get a taste of the Developer side as well as the Marketing side, and have access to both of them after the presentations.

 This meeting was all about Open-Source Projects, what it means, what it entails, and related philosophical concepts.  As many people know, Google contributes a lot of Open-Source code to the community, so it was an interesting meeting.


  We discussed some Open-Source projects being proposed that might prove viable.  We were fortunate enough to have four Google engineers at the meeting, who shared with us their experience with open-sourcing applications, as well as insights into the dynamics of an open-source project.

Our inaugural meeting.
