Inside Facebook

Thanks to Christine for sharing her slides from last night's presentation. Uploaded to meetup.com: http://files.meetup.com/1050569/FacebookSDKforiOS.pdf

Sorry folks for the NDA mixup and the initial delays. This is something we realized late in the game was a requirement. I had earlier thought the meeting area was an NDA-free zone, but it was not. Again, apologies for the mixup.

If you didn't have time to come chat. Here is a quick link to take a look at. http://bit.ly/NmQulD

Thanks and it was a great presentation! Excellent job FB!

Tim Burks it was great meeting you. I had an awesome time at Facebook. All 3 speakers did great! I learned a lot. Thanks!

Thanks Christine & Adam for being great hosts. I learned something new about fSDK. Many thanks!

I had to leave early to catch a flight back to Las Vegas. I talked to several people and would like to pose a question to get your thoughts on this:

If you had an iOS Developer reporting to you, what would be the difference between them being a "good" developer or a "Great" developer for you?

I have been getting some really interesting and thoughtful answers. I will share the summary of the answers next week.

So please let me know your thoughts.

The meeting tonight had many nice people attending who were gracious and hospitable. This was my first meeting and I really enjoyed it.

I look forward to attending again.

Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving.

Will the slides be available from this evening's Meetup?

The NDA sign-in was unexpected -- and delayed the start of the meeting by 30 minutes. I arrived early, but it still took 45 minutes to get in the meeting hall. Perhaps we could have emailed in our digital signature of the non-disclosure agreement, along with our info, and our name tag /lanyard could have been prepared and ready when we arrived at the sign-in table. On the other hand, was all this paperwork really necessary at all? After all, what intellectual property could we have stolen by attending this meeting??? Geez.

Yikes! Is anyone actually signing them?

Signing an NDA without getting paid? No description of the confidential information? No expiration time for a binding legal contract?
Umm, yeah that sounds like something I can't wait to sign!

7:18 and there is still room for more here.

Work seems to be never ending, especially when you want to get somewhere. Sorry, can't make it this time!

Unused invitations should go back into the general pool.

Where's the best place to go after the meetup tonight? Antonio's is a bit far from Menlo Park.

hashtag on Twitter is #SViOS

We have upcoming meetup events in Mountain View, which will cover setting up the BlackBerry development environment, getting familiar with the tools; and cover the 10k Developer Commitment inside out, get to know how to qualify your Apps for the 10k criteria , if you're interested, please join us at: https://www.meetup.com.... Thanks!

Apparently 1 Hacker Way is not registered with the Apple Maps App. Try 1 Network Circle, Menlo Park, CA

Hey guys, a seat is available in the car from SFO. Departure : Fillmore street and Eddy street 5:30pm. Anyone interested?

This is very cool! thanks for putting on this event.

1. are there any chances of volunteering for renaissance?
2. i'd love to have a technical corner talking tech to people smarter and more experienced than i am in ios dev. anyone interested?

hey tim, will this event be video taped? i do recall you were able to get this done on occasion and it would certainly relieve a lot of people of forcing the issue to attend or not.

thanks!

Hi there, anyone driving down from SF? Would love to carpool.

Thanks!

Hey! A friend of mine join to the event, buy he can't go. I can go with his name? I am on waitlist.

To speed up registration, Facebook security asked me for a list of names of people who are coming. If you're using meetup.com with an incomplete name, you'll still be able to get in, but expect a little more effort at the door.

I RSVPd weeks ago, but now I get an email saying the event is full and I can join the wait list. What happened?

Is there a wait list?

I'm coming from Argentina and I really would like to join this meetup. A friend of mine has already signup for the event, is there a waiting list or something like that? thanks in advance.

I also would like to join the meetup if possible.

whoops, missed on signing up last night. tim, let us know if standard protocol in showing up anyways for the 50% flake. thanks!

I would like to join this meetup too. Please let me know if there is another spot. thanks.

Expecting yet another great meetup, as usual. Kudos to Tim for taking the time/effort to make these happen!

Also my first meetup! Very excited!
I have a question: I just appear at the meet up, and show my meetup account? Or I should do something before?

Thank you!!!

I would like to registrate another person. Can I cancel my registration? what shold I do?

Excited to join my first meetup. Hope to share some user experience tips for iOS devs using https://heatma.ps

This looks like a great event and this will be my first meetup. Really looking forward to this and many more!

I love hearing speakers--is there any opportunity to sit down and just hang out with people hacking out the facebook SDK? i have been learning ioS but haven't gotten so far until now. I'd love to have the oportunity to speak to cool facebook evangelists about common issues that trip up beginning developers with their awesome sdk.

whoa! are there any volunteer opportunities for renaissance? $600 is worth it, but for the indie developers, any possibilities to give back to the community through sweat and labor? =D
