Brendan (@rit) is responsible for the scala toolkits (Casbah (http://api.mongodb.org/scala/casbah/current/) and Hammersmith (https://github.com/bwmcadams/hammersmith) ) for MongoDB (http://www.mongodb.org/) one of the leading nosql databases around. In this talk he is going to give an overview of how to use scala with MongoDB

Please note: that due to Brendan having to return to the States soon (and is 101 other things he has to do), we have agreed to take over what was going to be a more general talk he was going to do this night and its now going to be more Scala orientated (please don't tell out Clojure friend :-), so the skillsmatter web site does not quite match the description here.

We will, as always, also be heading to the Slaughtered Lamb (http://www.theslaughteredlambpub.com/) pub afterwards.
