From meghan at 10gen.com Tue Nov 9 15:21:19 2010 From: meghan at 10gen.com (Meghan Gill) Date: Tue, 9 Nov 2010 18:21:19 -0500 Subject: [sf-perl] [conference] MongoDB Conference on December 3 Message-ID: Hi all - I thought that some of you would be interested in this upcoming conference about MongoDB. We have a great agenda, with presenters lined up from 10gen, Craigslist, Shutterfly, Intuit, IGN, and more. Early bird is $50 and ends on Friday. As some of you may recall we held a similar conference called MongoSF back in April that sold out before early bird ended. We expect MongoSV to be even better. Check it out at http://www.mongosv.com, looking forward to seeing some of you there. Cheers, Meghan MongoSV ABOUT MongoSV is a multi-track, one-day conference in Mountain View, CA. The main conference track will feature 10gen founders Dwight Merriman and Eliot Horowitz, as well as Roger Bodamer, the head of 10gen's west coast operations, and several of the key engineers developing the MongoDB project. These sessions are geared towards developers and administrators interested in learning how to use the database, with sessions on schema design, indexing, administration, deployment strategies, scaling, and other features. A second track will showcase several high-profile deployments of the database at Shutterfly, Craigslist, IGN, Intuit, Wordnik, and more. For more experienced users of the database, there will be several advanced sessions, covering the storage engine, replication, sharding, and consistency models.

For our Tuesday 6:30 P.M. 2010-11-16 meeting, we're proud to present: Mark Terranova on Fedora[1] (14), etc. Mark Terranova will be giving a talk about Fedora and the recently (2010-11-02) released Fedora 14. ?He will also speak some about his experiences with Local tech stuff. Mark Terranova is a "West Coast Community-Developed-Software guy". Mark has regularly taught many types of computer classes specializing in the benefits of Linux and Cross-Platform Software. He has been involved with spreading Linux for a while. ?He has helped organize Linux Release Parties and other tech events that make it fun - using beer, BBQ, and other ways to create a fun community. He has spent much time in Portland, Oregon working with FreeGeek.org[2]. Their unique style helped him learn how to involve more people in computing. This knowledge has helped him in his role as co-founder of Gidget Kitchen[3] (GK). ?"Gidget Kitchen donates computers, generally using Ubuntu, to groups and individuals." ?GK strives to make modern technology simple, empowering, and easy for everyone to understand. The only requirement is the ability to "play well with others." Mark blames his interest in technical things and electronics on his father Michael. ?"He gave me a Commodore 64 and helped me get my amateur radio license (N6TBD) at an early age". 1. http://fedoraproject.org/ 2. http://www.freegeek.org/ 3. http://www.gidgetkitchen.org/ See also a bit further below for some additional goodies we'll have at this meeting (CDs, etc.) So, if you'd like to join us please RSVP to: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? rsvp at balug.org **Why RSVP??** Well, don't worry we won't turn you away, but the RSVPs really help the Four Seas Restaurant plan the meal and dining arrangements and such.

Sorry for the late notice, but given that most RSVPs happen in the couple days before the meeting, we are on par for the course. http://www.meetup.com/San-Francisco-Perl-Mongers/calendar/15502924/ Structured Wikis at Work - Enterprise 2.0 in Action Peter Thoeny will be speaking on Wikis at our next meeting on November 23rd at LookSmart. A enterprise wiki enables teams to organize and share content and knowledge in an organic and free manner, and to schedule, manage and document their daily activities. A wiki can also be used as an intranet where employees contribute content collaboratively, replacing a webmaster maintained intranet. This talk explains how wikis can be used at the workplace, including initial rollout, social aspects and security concerns. It also explains how teams can use TWiki, a leading open source enterprise collaboration platform, to build tailored wiki applications supporting their workflow and business processes. Learn how a structured wiki can bring Enterprise 2.0 into the workplace. ______ Agenda * Enterprise Collaboration * Demo of Structured Wiki * What is TWiki? * Structured wikis * Collaboration challenges at the workplace * Wiki champion * Initial deployment of a wiki * Overcoming barriers to adoption ___ Peter Thoeny is the founder of the TWiki Enterprise Collaboration platform and is leading the open-source project for 12 years. He is the CTO of Twiki Inc, a company providing enterprise agility platform solutions. He invented the concept of structured wikis - where free form wiki content can be structured with tailored wiki applications. Peter is the recognized thought-leader in wikis and social software, featured in numerous articles and technology conferences including LinuxWorld, Business Week, Wall Street Journal and more. He graduated from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, lived in Japan for 8 years, and deployed several large scale wikis around the globe. He co-authored the Wikis for Dummies book. _____________________________________ Presentation slides (will be updated) http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Codev/TWikiPresentation2009x12x03 Announcement posted via App::PM::Announce http://www.meetup.com/San-Francisco-Perl-Mongers/calendar/15502924/ From fred at redhotpenguin.com Mon Nov 22 10:56:38 2010 From: fred at redhotpenguin.com (Fred Moyer) Date: Mon, 22 Nov 2010 10:56:38 -0800 Subject: [sf-perl] Fwd: UG News--Perl Programming Certificate, New from O'Reilly School of Technology In-Reply-To: <1290420048.14283.0.576991@post.oreilly.com> References: <1290420048.14283.0.576991@post.oreilly.com> Message-ID: Looks interesting. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Marsee Henon & Jon Johns Date: Mon, Nov 22, 2010 at 2:00 AM Subject: UG News--Perl Programming Certificate, New from O'Reilly School of Technology To: fred at redhotpenguin.com View in browser: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zjfm52390bedqf6svk17p5bc56md10isrkinpa1o Forward this announcement to your user group or a friend: http://post.oreilly.com/f2f/9z1zdogpfjqjhncijibt9jur527gl99039ke11uusl0 *** O'Reilly School of Technology - New Certificate Series *** Perl Programming Certificate http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1znuo2psc6bq4s7pah2kpr74eepi1prbo1thvlm1o "...it is obvious that all O'Reilly School of Technology teachers are pros.
