They&#8217;re not our creation though &#8212; I stole the name from <a title=\"YAPC\" href=\"http:\/\/www.yapc.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Yet Another Perl Conference<\/a>. This week, Jason Schollenberger, Brian O&#8217;Keefe, and I all shared different topics, covered in the PDF available for download below.<\/p>\n<p>Jason discussed an application he&#8217;s developing in C# that tracks inventory for companies online. Brian covered two different projects: <a title=\"AugustAmbience\" href=\"http:\/\/augustambience.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">AugustAmbience<\/a>, which uses jQuery to play the &#8220;soothing sounds of summer&#8221; and has attracted over 120,000 unique visitors, and LoserStats, a FaceBook application that uses different profile metrics to score the <em>loserosity<\/em> of the person using the application. We went over the pitfalls of FaceBook application development, as well as the great elements of jQuery. Lastly, I quickly discussed a project I&#8217;m developing in Perl for automating my current open mic website, <a title=\"JerseyMic\" href=\"http:\/\/www.jerseymic.com\" target=\"_blank\">JerseyMic<\/a>. We discussed the different methods for pulling in information and how I&#8217;m going to integrate it all into a single source website.<\/p>\n<p>Feel free to download the PDF available below for additional information:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.deadcodersociety.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/dcsminutes-2010-10-29.pdf\">Minutes from the first round of DCS lightning talks<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jason Schollenberger, Brian O&#8217;Keefe, and Stan Schwertly all shared different topics this week, which are covered in the PDF available for download.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.deadcodersociety.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.deadcodersociety.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.deadcodersociety.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.deadcodersociety.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.deadcodersociety.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=115"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.deadcodersociety.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":117,"href":"http:\/\/www.deadcodersociety.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115\/revisions\/117"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.deadcodersociety.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=115"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.deadcodersociety.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=115"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.deadcodersociety.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=115"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
