    Hi Jeremy,
    There is something that will be happening soon. There was a small hackathon at the Gaylord texan last month very few people responded
    Something good is on the way. I just can't say what yet. I will change
    The site name and twitter name. Talk to you later.

    Bummer! I unfortunately had a medical emergency yesterday that has put me in the hospital. I was so looking forward to this Meetup. Just the volume of what is happening, and all the people coming. Plus missing out on the the drawing! Could really have used that Pre 3, since my Pre 2 took a face dive and bit the dust. Have fun, and good luck to the winners if the drawing.

    Regarding the goodies. Does each person get one entry for the running, or are you able to get multiple entries on each giveaway. Meaning, if you donate 20 dollars on the internet or on the in person drawings, do you get 4 chances to win, depending on which way you donate, or does your name get enterred in once no matter the amount of donation? Sorry, it is after lunch and my mind doesn't necessarily work good after a hearty meal.

      So how do I enter the Twitter drawing???

      Posted by Norm Becker July 20
    • TeckieGirl's Photo

      you have to the option to simply donate to the Dallas meet up group or to webOS internals...its your choice. that's it please Google webOS internals or look in comments of this site on how to do it.

      Posted by TeckieGirl July 20
  • TeckieGirl's Photo

    from Ben Combee:

    I'm glad to be coming tomorrow... my plan it to talk a little about the Enyo 2.0 release and also go over some demos from the talk I gave last fall about the internals of webOS (and note how it related to the new webOS Community Edition).

    be prepared...

    I am doing a half chocolate half vanilla cake with a chocolate butter
    creme icing :)...meow

    Posted by TeckieGirl July 19
  • Norm Becker's Photo

    Sorry if this is redundant to everyone else (perhaps others have the same question/s, but are afraid to ask???). I just found the group, and have never joined a Meetup group or attended an event before. How do I donate to "webOS Internals".

    Also, been on Twitter for a while, but haven't put a lot of time into figuring out all of the ins and outs of it, so how would I go about donating through Twitter?

    Oh, and BTW, vanilla cake - NO icing...and only one attending.

    Posted by Norm Becker July 19
    • TeckieGirl's Photo

      if you prefer to donate via webOS internals google it and look for the donate button on the site :)

      Posted by TeckieGirl July 19
  • TeckieGirl's Photo

    I have a question...Chocolate, vanilla or both on a cake?

    Rather, when is the last time we can enter the twitter drawing. Deadline, yes, that is the correct word. Sorry for the book I am writing. I am sure there is a shortenned version of this somewhere in my brain but....

    Posted by Allen Roberson July 19
  • TeckieGirl's Photo

    If you have never been to Social House, the food is really good. There is WiFi and tea (with refills are being served) along with water. we will decide the menu once all the donations get in.

    Jeremy, or anyone out there with availability and patience. I am ready to attempt app making. I am a brand newbie. No experience. I am very eager to learn. I do have a couple of (what I think would be simple) ideas in mind, so if anyone has some time to work with me on beginning, or the websites to send me to to start, I would be grateful.

There are a couple of other people that I invited also. They recently acquirred HP Touchpads, so I asked them if they would like to join us.
