Ahoy!

The November 2014 Meetup of The Windows Developer User Group is scheduled for November 17th from 6PM to 8PM @ TechColumbus. Please see details below & kindly RSVP.

Topic:
Back to the Future!

Abstract:
Have you noticed that every app and idea you encounter today seems like a rehashed, recycled, redone version of something else? As we approach the year of Marty McFly’s hoverboard, we are going to talk about the current state of mobile and IoT, where the leaders will be in the next 5 years, and how we can start building the next generation of experiences for our users today. You will walk away from this talk with 4 new ideas, and a passion to be the first to solve them.
