CloudAustin December: The Twelve Clouds of Christmas

It's our December tradition - a dozen 5 minute lightning demos/talks from the members of CloudAustin! Email to get on the list.

You can see previous years' lineups for 2013 (https://www.meetup.com/CloudAustin/events/140828762/), 2012 (http://www.eventbrite.com/e/austin-cloud-user-group-meeting-december-18-2012-tickets-4922596619), and 2011 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jX1BT9T2tcw). Talks are OK, demos are better, strict 5 minute limit. Show off whatever you're working on!

Austin DevOps (https://www.meetup.com/austin-devops/) will be joining us for this festive holiday celebration - other local tech user groups who want to just pile onto this instead of trying to schedule a meeting near the holidays are welcome to call this their official December meeting too, just email us!
