Feel free to reach out to me with any questions! Look forward to seeing you all again at upcoming meetups.

thanks to everyone that came out last night. We hope the night was meaningful and gave you some things to chew on ... besides the rice crispy treats. :P

Nice to have some good hard technical talks. Made me interested in checking into StackMob's offering more closely

Took lots of notes – very informative.

Great presentation! It was exciting to see the demo of Stackmob!

Great to see so many iOS enthusiasts yesterday evening. I never paid attention to minute core animation details on popups and tap areas. Stackmob is a great concept.

First and last presentations were pretty useful. Nice to see some core animation examples. We will definitely give stackmob a try

All 3 were very useful presentations ; will love to get a hand on the slides.

Also wanted to add a quick note about our newly established Amazon AWS team in Palo Alto. We are building a new product from the ground-up and are looking for entrepreneurial developers/craftsmen who are passionate about start-up opportunities to help build and launch v1 of this stealth-mode initiative!!

Specifically looking for a senior mobile developer with iOS and/or Android experience . If you want to know more connect with me on http://www.linkedin.com/in/himanshukhurana

Awesome presentations that illustrated some really cool things to think about and do on iOS

Excellent. Nice to see the Core Animation code and GUI design in the first talk. Enjoyed the talk about Core Data, too.

The meeting was kind of a disappointment, 2 corporate plugs and I only found 1st talk meaningful.

Engineering User Delight was inspiring. StackMob was pretty slick.

Hi all, please grab something to eat before the meetup tonight or plan to go out afterwards. We'll have light snacks and bottled water courtesy of Intuit but nothing heavy. Also, Intuit policy prohibits outside food, so no brown-bagging.

We have a lot of signups! Please join me in thanking Intuit for hosting and accommodating our big group.

Need to draft a patent application, try this workshop: http://draftpatentapp.eventbrite.com/

Tim, I'd like to suggest that you change this group from "manual" waiting list to "automatic" waiting list. "Automatic" will automatically promote whomever is first in line when a spot opens up. Your current "manual" setting sends an email to everyone on the waiting list, with the first to reply getting in.
I, personally, would prefer "automatic" for two reasons:

1. It matches better the traditional concept of a waiting list.
2. I have felt a little bit of agitation and annoyment after clicking the link and finding the meetup full after each recent waiting list email.
   Thanks, Bob

I'm confused. Did the wait list open up or not? I just got an email but don't see where I can say yes I'm still interested.

I don't know who's idea it was to put a government holiday on a meetup day, but to accommodate Presidents' Day, we've moved the February meetup back a week to Feb. 25th. Sorry for the inconvenience.
