Event details: Lightning Student Demos of Google Technologies

Description
We are trying something completely different this month. We are inviting college students to come and give Lightning Demos of their current projects using Google Technology. Also, our meeting this month is being co-hosted by the Web 2.0 Mapping and Social Networks Group A.K.A. the WebMapSocial Meetup. A Lightning Talk or Demo is a short presentation given at a conference or similar forum. Unlike other presentations, lightning talks last only a few minutes and several will usually be delivered in a single period by different speakers. Each short talk will have a 5 minute limit. In order to allow rapid changes between speakers, talks and demos that can be done using just a web browser will be given first priority. This minimizes the dead time during laptop swaps at the podium. Talks that require a separate laptop will go last. Agenda

6:00-6:30pm Arrive & mingle -- Food & drinks provided by Google 6:30-6:50pm Lightning Demos by our Professional Members 6:50-7:00pm General Announcements 7:00-8:30pm Lightning Demos by our Student Members 8:30-9:00pm Further networking before heading home

Although this is a free event, we will be limiting attendance to a maximum of 200 attendees. For last minute updates on this event, please refer to the main meeting announcement on the Silicon Valley GTUG site. During the networking hour, we invite our Professional Members that develop applications using Google Technology to do brief demos of 5 minutes or less. After these demos, there will be some general group announcements followed by more Lightning Talks and Demos by local college students. Please contact Van Riper to indicate your interest to get on the demo schedule as a professional or student member. Time permitting, we will include as many demos as possible in the evening. Meeting Sponsor

We would like to thank Google for providing the venue and the refreshments for this meeting. In particular, we would like to thank Stephanie Liu for serving as our primary meeting support contact at Google.
