Building 3rd Party Widgets - Jonathan Julian

How does the Facebook Like button work? How do sites like Twitter offer widgets that you can embed on your own blog? In this session, we'll build our own widget for cross-domain communication, while also covering dynamic script loading, JSONP, iframe hacking, HTML5 PostMessage, etc. 

CreativeJS Demo - Ricky Blaha/Cory Hudson

In-browser graphical capabilities are becoming richer than ever, and you can now create truly beautiful visual effects with JavaScript and HTML5. Join us as we demonstrate some of amazing graphical effects that are possible using methods pioneered by Seb Lee-Delisle (and taught in his training courseshttp://creativejs.com/

Hungry?

Food will be provided - we have wings along with cheese and veggie trays. Some cold beverages as well.

Lightning Talks

Do you have something you'd like to share? A new library, a cool project, or just need a soapbox to rant from? We're making time for multiple 5-minute lightning talks at the beginning of every meetup. Email the organizers and we'll add you to the schedule.

We have a new venue!

Advertising.com has offered their space to us for this meetup, it's located in Tide Point in the Ivory Building. Enter the building under the large sign that says "Ivory" and walk by the big blue crab then take an immediate left. You can take the water taxi over from Fells Point (landing #8) to landing #10 or you can drive over and park in any spot marked "Visitor" or in the "F" lot.

The green is where the designated visitor spaces are. Those are marked "visitor" on the pavement. Watch out for 'reserved' or handicap. The purple shaded in area is one of the employee lots which is available for us to park in. The Blue marker next to the building is the entrance to the Advertising.com meeting space.
