A new group is starting up in chicago
This is Google Technology User Group meeting; developers, students and  
entrepreneurs are welcome. This is the first such meeting in Chicago  
-- it is loaded with interesting information, it is big, it is  
ambitious, don't miss it.

Thanks to courtesy of Google Inc. we will meet at their facility at 20  
W. Kinzie, Chicago.

We will have a lot of short 15 minute presentations to stimulate the

speaker and Google employee about what sparked your interests.

The theme of this meeting is:

"Google tools to jump-start your next idea into a social networking  
start-up"

We hope you will walk out of this meeting super-charged to create the

of new ventures in Chicago land area.
