The next meeting of the Detroit Perl Mongers / Dynamic Languages group
will be at 7pm on March 18th 2008.

This month Bill Hess will be presenting on dynamic web application
development using Meteor.

What is Meteor (from http://meteorserver.org/)

Meteor is an HTTP server which gives developers the freedom to think
about web development in an entirely new way. It comprises the Meteor
server and a standalone Javascript class which can be used in web pages
to provide an abstraction layer for receiving data streams. Designed to
be as simple and flexible as possible, Meteor offers a great solution
for those wishing to add asynchronous functionality to their web
projects.

The presentation will include an introduction to this technology which
is dubbed "Comet"  which is related to "AJAX" - both are names of
popular scrubbing powders - get it?   A live working example will also
be presented and the steps on how it was implemented.
