Posted by Lucian on Monday, April 20, 2009

We are having our next meetup!

Date: 29th April 2009
Time: 8pm (can come earlier to chit-chat, we’ve booked the room from 7pm)
Place: Seminar Room 4.2 @ School of Economics & Social Sciences, SMU

Speakers and Topics

Where Websites Go Wrong

Andy Croll (@andycroll) will be speaking on “Where Websites Go Wrong”, covering commonplace mistakes made by websites. Andy blogs at Deepcalm and has done spectacular work on Singaporean websites such as Epicurious and Bezurk (now known as Wego).

Developing for the Mobile Platform

Jon Peterson (@singeo) will be covering the in and outs of developing applications for the mobile platform. Jon has wowed many of us with his mad topographical skills on his blog Singeo, moved his mapping mojo to mobiles with iSingeo and most recently whetted our insatiable need for good food with the iPhone application buUuk.

What the Singapore Gahmen Could Do Better Online

We will also be having an open discussion on “What the Singapore Government could do better online”. While we encourage a spirited debate, there is a need to keep from becoming a slamming session (unless by slamming, you mean kickass, and by kickass, you mean awesome). So political tirades aside, let’s get cracking on how Singapore could move forward on making things happen.

Epic Fail

We’ve heard of your single claim to fame. Now regale us with tales of the many failures, missed opportunities and faceplants. We want to hear every sordid detail of how you took the wrong turn and ended up sitting next to the rest of us at the meetup instead of wining and dining with Silicon Valley’s finest. If you have such a story, bring it. Open mic, five minutes a piece, slides optional.

Because we’re sick of listening to the lucky few. This is the time for failure to shine.

Are you coming?

Due to the limited number of seats, I’d ask that you leave a comment below if you are coming. We’ll move to a larger room if necessary and available.

See you guys there.
