DevEvening
Developer evening was set up by Alex Mackey and Simon Pease. Both myself and Simon enjoyed learning and discussing technology and techniques. We thought it would be useful to have an informal forum where information could be shared amongst developers. All we needed was a venue, a deal was then made with a local hotel to hire a room at no cost on the condition that group would purchase food and drink. This also provided a second part of the evening for socialising and networking.
All are welcome!
No one has to present a topic if they dont want to (although it is great if you can)
Presentations short be shortish (Anywhere between 5-30 min)
No members (yet?) are professional speakers so please encourage rather than critise (healthy debate is okay)
Topics must be related to .net/development/related subjects
All members must purchase drink/food as this pays for our venue
Food is very reasonably priced at between £7-15 for a meal. The menu is changed each month.
Membership of this group is free :)

Git, Powershell & SharePoint - DevEvening: Jan 2010
Thu, 28 Jan 2010, 19:00 - 21:30 in Woking, United Kingdom
 Git & PowershellMark EmblingGit is a great new distributed version control system fast gaining in traction, particularly in the open-source space where GitHub has no doubt helped push it forward. However even on Windows, most people tend to use Git through the bash shell. There is another way: Powershell. Mark will cover why he thinks Git and Powershell make a great combination, and demonstrate some tweaks which can be made to make Git & Powershell feel like a match made in heaven.

DevEvening: Christmas CodeFest
Thu, 3 Dec 2009, 18:30 - 21:30 in Woking, United Kingdom
This time we're trying something different:We all learn in different ways. While it can be good to learn by hearing people present and demonstrate new techniques, it can also be good to learn by seeing how different people solve the same problem. That's what we hope to do at the CodeFest.The plan is for everyone to write automated players for a simple game.
