Greetings! My name is Catherine Burton and I am your organizer. Thanks for your interest in our group. We're glad you're here.

Our group is about sharing, teaching, learning, and networking around current and future web-related geospatial and social networking applications and technology. We meet regularly on the third Tuesday evening of every month at Google in Silicon Valley, California. For two hours we build fellowship around web 2.0, mashups, maps, programming, GIS, entrepreneurship, LBS, imaging, social networks, well-funded and unfunded companies, and other goodies.

Presentations run the gamut of our community: from hardware to web-based applications, hackers to scientists, start-ups to billion-dollar companies. Most of all this Meetup is an opportunity for people who spend a lot of time facing screens to face each other and talk about what flies and fails in tech.

Hi All!

Thanks for your support of this terrific Meetup group. I'm excited about the strong interest in this month's event and look forward to hosting y'all at Google on Tuesday, November 17th. At the moment, we have one presentation scheduled, which is great because that gives us plenty-o-time to meet and greet. However, I've got my radar up for one or two more companies that may be available to present. Read more
