If you've got JavaScript skills and you'd like to implement such things as Google Gadgets or Maps
on your site, bring your laptops and come spend some time with us in Mountain View.
This Friday, my team (Google Developer Programs) is hosting a hackathon to get you started with
our JavaScript APIs. There will be plenty of our engineers around to answer questions. We'll
start with short introductions of the APIs and then break into groups for coding and camaraderie.
There'll be food, and prizes too.
The featured JavaScript APIs:
Google Gears
—make your web applications work offline
And no worries if you're busy this Friday; future hackathons will feature other APIs and more
languages. Check out the
Developer Events Calendar
for future listings. Hope to see you soon.
