ALT.NET Chicago MonoTouch Presentation

Next month I’ll be presenting about MonoTouch at the ALT.NET Chicago February 2010 Meeting:

• When: February 10th, 2010
• Where: Redpoint Technologies, Willis Tower, 233 South Wacker Dr. Suite #750, Chicago IL
• Price: FREE! Learn more and register here.

MonoTouch is a new SDK based on Novell’s Mono platform that allows developers to create native iPhone (and soon iPad) applications using .NET languages and APIs. In this presentation, I’ll be talking about the iPhone platform in general, how MonoTouch fits in that ecosystem, and I’ll show how to create a quick sample application.

If you’re coming to the meeting, and have any questions or things you would like to see in the presentation, please contact me!

As many of you know, I’ve been co-hosting the ALT.NET meetings the great Sergio Pereira at our Redpoint office for the last two years, so it’s was big pleasure to be invited to present. Thanks goes to Sergio for the opportunity!

Chicago ALT.NET October LIVE!

We’ll be having the October Chicago ALT.NET meeting tonight, at Redpoint’s office at the Willis Tower.Alex Pedenko will be doing a great presentationa about CouchDB.

If you can’t come, but would like to watch the presentation, I’ll be transmitting it live right here later today. The transmission will start at 6pm Chicago time (11pm UTC).

Check out the Chicago ALT.NET Channel on UStream.

Update: The meeting, as usual, was a great success! We had over 30 people in the room, plus 26 people watching the presentation live (6 stayed on for most of the presentation). The CouchDB presentation was really good, I’ll try to spend time learning more about it.

Update 2: It seems UStream doesn’t automatically make the video available for viewing after it was broadcast, which is a bummer. Luckly, Sergio Pereira also recorded the presentation; he’ll likely put it online in the next few weeks.
