March Meetup - Developing for Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0)
Details
I'm very happy to announce that we will have Norman McEntire of Servin (http://servin.com) presenting to us on developing for the Android 4.0 platform code name "Ice Cream Sandwich" or "ICS" for short.
Norman McEntire, M.S., MCSE, founded Servin Corporation in 1995 to provide computer training, consulting, and software development with a focus on Android, iOS, and Linux. With 25+ years of experience, he has designed both hardware and software at all levels, from embedded Linux to enterprise software. His training clients include Dell, HP, IBM, Intel, NCR, and Qualcomm.
Normal is also an instructor with UCSD Extension and has taught numerous courses on Android, Objective-C and iOS programming. I took his Introduction to Android Programming class in 2011 and was very impressed with the quality of the courses and Norman's dedication to his students. Norman is an excellent instructor and I'm sure this meeting will be very educational for anyone who is interested in developing for Ice Cream Sandwich. Norman will guide us through several live-coding examples to show us how to make the most of this exciting new platform.

Here are driving directions: Bridgepoint is located on the southeast corner of the 15 and 56 interchange. If you're heading eastbound on the 56 take the first exit that is immediately after the ramp to 15 northbound. That road is Sabre Springs Parkway. If you're traveling on the 15 take the Ted Williams Parkway exit heading east. Exit (almost immediately) and turn right on Sabre Springs Parkway. Head south on Sabre Springs Parkway a very short distance. Take the second right which is Evening Creek Road. Travel a very short distance and turn into the third driveway you see on your right. We will be meeting in the Ashford building which is the one in the middle with the "Ashford.edu" sign on it. Park anywhere on the street or in the lot. Come inside the Ashford building and up to the fourth floor. Exit the elevators and look for the conference room labeled Leadership Room.
Will see you all soon! Bill Wixted San Diego - Android Developers Group Organizer
