Lightning Talks + FOAF Party

Barbri Educational Center (map)

Selected By: Hung Tran

After the last meetup enough of us thought it would be great to do a small unconference style meetup + some practical exercise. So mark your calendars and prep your creative juices.

The first half we will do a series of quick presentations/pitches called lightning talk - this is open to anyone we will limit to 5 speakers and keep the who session below 50 minutes - including comments thoughts QA. Speakers will register on the sheet on arrival the group will vote on which talks gets done.

The 2nd half we'll do an excercise the goal everyone ends up with a foaf profile in some shape or form. And we'll all post them somewhere. E.g. did you know if you have a github.com account you essentially have a place to post your profile free of charge and under revision control!

Location: Barbri Educational Center
3280 Motor Avenue, Suite 200
Los Angeles, CA

    Hey folks -- I forgot to note that once again Thomson Reuters is hosting, so that means pizza and soda.

    Maybe next time we'll trade up to something new -- say Middle Eastern fare or a guacamole extravaganza... anyway feel free to post your snack preferences for next time.

    Meanwhile, hope to see you Thursday night!

    Last night, I mentioned the increasing excitement within the enterprise data community over Semantic Technologies. Here's a great blog post from earlier this week on this topic: ?The Semantic Future of MDM? - http://ping.fm/L5B12
