Come Talk Copyright, Trademarks, and Technology at TechSpace!
Join us (at our new digs in the TechSpace!) for an evening of informal discussion about the impact technology has had on the field of copyright and trademark law. And, of course, the impact this all has on businesses and geeks alike. (Yeah, I’m looking at you, you open-source zealots!)
Susan Stearns, a local copyright & trademark lawyer, has generously offered to lead a casual discussion and will kick things off with a brief overview of what copyright and trademark law is about, including highlights of how technology has affected some of her cases. However the bulk of the meeting will be spent in casual discussion with the audience on whatever topics or issues they have concerns about. Or as Susan put it, “Advice from a copyright/trademark lawyer… for free!”
NOTE: If you have specific topics of interest, please include them in the comment field when you RSVP, so Susan can do a little prep work prior to the meeting.

Our next user group meeting is coming up on Friday, July 10. Kris McBride will be presenting on Performance Point and SharePoint.
Sencha Touch Mobile Web Development
Join COWPU for a quick overview of Sencha Touch, and dive into an example app to kick the tires a bit.
Last week Sencha (formerly known as ExtJs) dropped a new HTML5/CSS3 mobile framework onto the scene with the release of Sencha Touch. Sencha Touch provides a framework to rapidly develop mobile web applications for modern smart phones that look and behave much like mobile applications.
From Sencha:
Sencha Touch is the world’s first app framework built specifically to leverage HTML5, CSS3, and Javascript for the highest level of power, flexibility, and optimization. We make specific use of HTML5 to deliver components like audio and video, as well as a localStorage proxy for saving data offline. We have made extensive use of CSS3 in our stylesheets to provide the most robust styling layer possible.
