The Twelve Clouds of Christmas - Year Eight
Details
It's our December tradition - a dozen (or more) 5 minute lightning demos/talks from the members of CloudAustin and the Austin technical community!
Email (austin-cug-admin@googlegroups.com) or comment below with name and talk title to get on the list. Talks are OK, demos are better, strict 5 minute limit. Show off whatever you're working on!
You can see previous years' 12 Clouds lineups for 2017 (https://www.meetup.com/CloudAustin/events/mzfzwnywqbzb/), 2016 (https://www.meetup.com/CloudAustin/events/qlldhhyvqbbc/), 2015 (https://www.meetup.com/CloudAustin/events/226373629/), 2014 (https://www.meetup.com/CloudAustin/events/212248062/), 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).
Various other user groups will be joining us for this festive holiday celebration - if your local tech user group wants 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, sure! Comment to the effect of "add in XX" below and then point your members to this invite! You can also post it on your own Meetup but please ask members to also RSVP here so we have a good headcount.
Because this is a large, festive event, we have room for multiple sponsors. If you have an idea of something else to sponsor, tell us! Dinner, dessert, booze, and door prizes are all good. Email austin-cug-admin@googlegroups.com for more information!
