WebSIG Cleveland’s  next meetup will be focused on the increasingly-important topic of social networking. Let’s go to the official announcement text: 

“ In this session, discover how to effectively use social media tools such as Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, and LinkedIn to fuel traffic to your online channels of business. What does it take to harness the power of these interactive tools? How much time does it take? Why should I bother with them?”

The meetup is scheduled for Saturday, February 21st, from 10:30 AM until noon, and will take place here:

Barudan America
29500 Fountain Parkway
Solon, OH 44139-4350 

 Sound good? Damn right it does. If you need any more information (or if just enjoy opening additional browser windows), you can checkout the meetup’s detail page.

The Cleveland Web Standards Association’s next meetup is Wednesday, February 3rd, from 6:30pm to 8:00pm,  at Progressive Insurance (details below). The subject is an introduction to object oriented programming, the speaker is Dave Goerlich, nature/location of the after-party is to be determined on the night, and the write-up from the CWSA themselves is as follows:

“Have you had to endure developers talking about objects, classes, interfaces, inheritance and the like and not really understood what they were talking about? Are you a beginning or self-taught developer, and are still trying to get your head around the concepts of OO? This presentation is for you. Dave Goerlich will explain the fundamentals of OO without getting code in the way.”

As promised, here are some more details on the location. The Progressive Campus is located off the Wilson Mills Road exit on I-271. Check in at the Visitor’s Center in the West Building at the 6300 Wilson Mills Rd. Campus.The meeting will be in the Campus 1 West Lower Wintergarden room. Hope to see you all there.
