Topic: Cross-Platform Javascript Gamedev with PhoneGap - Because We Could Do Worse, I Guess
From Tod Hansmann, the presenter:
"Basically, we're going to have a quick look at PhoneGap, what it is and isn't, and then we're going to quickly write a game with it while covering some simple topics in PhoneGap specific nuances. I'll even have the game on a couple android tablets if I can swing it.
"Be prepared to know at least how Javascript works. Ish. I guess. Note that I'll be fairly tongue-in-cheek about javascript hipsterism and how it's taking over the world, all the while facing the reality of Javascript as a large portion of UI development in the future. I may even use Vim, but I doubt it.
"Oh, and I may give Adobe a few plugs on some of their tools, because they're pretty awesome."

Just go in the front doors, and follow the signs. We're usually in a conference in the back of the main floor. There will be pizza provided by TekSystems.
