Click "Files" and go to "Inlet.js" to start editing the code.
There's also a set of screencsts on d3.js that covers both basic and advanced topics with Tributary, the dot enter mixtapes:

Very cool! Can we get the slides of the other speakers posted here? (I think Michael mentioned he was going to post in a week when his project is published).

I wouldn't expect the organizers to know about NACIS, but thought the presenter would. I'll ping Ragi, who runs the GeoMeetup, and maybe there could be a co-sponsored Meetup at Code for America sometime in November.

Yikes, that is unfortunate timing regarding the NACIS national meeting. I don't think any of the organizers of the group are cartographers, which might explain the oversight. This is our first d3.geo meetup.
If a couple cartographers in the group are willing to help organize, we could do a second geo meetup next month. Have any ideas?

It's unfortunate that a geo talk is scheduled at the same time the North American Cartographic Information Society's national meeting is happening in Portland. (Open Street Map's State of the Map and a WhereCamp are also happening up there that week.)
