Next Meetup 20th of January 7pm Seagrass

Hi all:

New year new format :) .

Basically, instead of someone responsible of presenting a topic, we are going to try this approach of discussing a topic as a group, so please read up on it and be ready to contribute.

The topic is: Web Platforms ( ie: Open Rasta, ASP.NET MVC, Monorail, FubuMVC, Webforms, etc)

  • How are they different?
  • whats good and what s bad about them?
  • When to use one or the other?
  • How about smaller frameworks?
  • How simple it is to host them in a different platform
  • … etc

See you there :)

Please note change of Date due to Seagrass now being closed on Tuesdays (….)

The end of the first year

Hi all:

I m writting this post in high spirits. ( and no I m not drunk ..yet :) )
Just really happy that we got Dublin Alt Net off the ground and all that’s happened this year, including some really interesting talks , visitor talks ( Thanks again Seb), a successful Book club where we meet every week, and most important of all, the opportunity to meet and talk to people that are as passionate about this “programming thing” as we all are.

Thanks all and lets make the next one even more amazing.

Happy Xmas and Happy New Year!

Andrea

Check the calendar for January events ( of course we have stuff planned already!)
