Carolina Girl Geek Dinner on April 6

17 03 2011

Update:

 Just a quick update to let you know that our presenter for tonight’s event had to cancel due to a family emergency.  Instead of having a presentation style event, we’ll switch gears to a more casual evening of dinner and networking.  I have tons of door prizes so we still plan on raffling those off.  See you soon!

Come explore Windows Phone 7 and XNA Games! 

Chris G. Williams will be presenting ‘A Tour of Windows Phone 7 and XNA 4.0′.  In this talk, he’ll cover what’s new in XNA 4.0, especially as it pertains to Windows Phone 7.  He’ll cover phone features, using the emulator and how to take advantage of the various sensors (like the Accelerometer) and features (MultiTouch, Gestures, etc) in your games. Rumor has it, he may even have a phone with him.

Space is limited, so please sign up soon!

Carolina Girl Geek Dinners Event

9 02 2010

For the first quarterly event of 2010, we have a great evening planned!

Social Networking has a new meaning these days… it’s online and virtual. It’s no longer limited to mingling at a party or meeting someone for a drink. How many of you have been connected with someone you never would have come across (or possibly not even remembered!) if it wasn’t for Facebook or MySpace?

The first topic of the evening will be “Social Networking: Social and Professional Uses” presented by Charlotte’s own social media gurus, Anita Blanchard and Angela Benton.

Speaking of social networking, are you a member of the Carolina Girl Geek Dinners groups on Facebook and LinkedIn? If not, get out there and join us!

Secondly, we’ll be hearing about Dell EqualLogic, presented by Dell’s own Chris Mojica. We’ll see and hear about how IT’s wish list has been exceeded with Dell’s EqualLogic storage solution. 

When: February 25, 2010
6:00 – 6:30PM: Registration, Dinner buffet, and Networking
6:30 – 8:00PM: Presentations on Social Networking and EqualLogic
8:00 – 8:30PM: Door Prizes and Networking

Where:
Dilworth neighborhood Grille
911 E. Morehead
Charlotte, NC 28204
Note: We will be located in the Morehead Room

Guy geeks are invited if accompanied by a girl geek. This event is FREE for all, but RSVP is required as space is limited!
