Deerfield Beach Coder's Cafe, 5 March 13

Here is the Invitation for this presentation:

Come learn how to write mobile cross platform application using C# and Xamarin’s tools: MonoTouch and Mono for Android. We will learn how to architect and write code that can be reused across all platforms using C# and the .NET Framework.

Speakers:

I am a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) and a Microsoft Certified Application Developer (MCAD) with many years of experience building and architecting .NET applications and even more years of professional experience using Microsoft development technologies such as ASP, Visual Basic, and SQL Server. I have worked in several markets such as Insurance, Real Estate, Leasing, Medical, among many others. I am very passionate about software development and love to write articles and speak about it at technical conferences. During my free time I like to enjoy time with my family, play sports (specifically the real football), play games, and code."
(Jonas Stawski)

So, what did we learn about 'Monkey Code' (Mono) and its' variations ( Xamarin) etc.?  And, how does it apply to simultaneous programming for multiple mobile OS's ?

PBIT Meeting, 12 Feb 13

This month's presentation was about Exotic Signs and how to use wraps to enhance your marketing image.  Check out the 'wrapped' products in thee picture above.

Danielle Major had a front-row seat at this presentation.  These were her spontaneous remarks:

I also wanted to say that I was blown away by the presentation... The vast array of items that got private labelled was impressive.  The artwork was equally impressive and the quality was beyond expectations.
It was really nice to have a tactile presentation for a change.  Thank you both for taking the time and effort to bring all of those items in for us to pass around... you must have been cringing when you saw John walk in with Wings!!
Lynne, thank you for putting up with us and staying late to give us a place to congregate and plan our world domination.
John, as always, thank you for coordinating everything and being the Ringmaster.

And Eyas and Paul Jordan...  a great big huge thank you for your time and efforts...  very impressive, gentlemen!

Have a fabulous Wednesday and hope to see everyone next month!
