Clevland’s Web Standards Meetup group is hosting an event on programming. http://webdesign.meetup.com/396/calendar/7340442/
Have you ever used a website where you enter some information and it magically remembers what you enter? Or what about listening to programmers talk about “databases” and “code”? Come and hear Joe Fiorini, an experienced web developer, explain what “programming” is and how it can help your web site. You will learn how to use object-oriented programming to get information from a form to a database, and from a database back out to a screen. Don’t know what a database is? No problem! He will explain that too!
If you already know all about programming, never fear! Joe will also be showing how to get started using Ruby on Rails, a growing and extremely popular framework for quickly writing web applications.
Speaker bio: Joe Fiorini is a web developer with 8 years of experience in programming for web sites. He has been using HTML and CSS since 1997. Currently he works for Telligent System (the creators of Community Server) as a Software Development Engineer; he develops and maintains sites for Microsoft’s developer community. Previously he worked for Tenth Floor, an interactive marketing company, as a Senior Web Developer. He has delivered technology presentations at various user groups, and to employees at Harley-Davidson and Progressive Insurance.
