Event Details

The Google AJAX APIs let you implement rich, dynamic features on your existing web sites entirely in JavaScript and HTML. Using this family of APIs you can add a map to your site, include dynamic search controls, or download and mashup feeds with just a few lines of JavaScript.

These APIs include the Google Maps API, the Google AJAX Search API, and the Google AJAX Feed API as well as some newer ones that allow you to easily translate text content, visiualize graphical data and even integrate with other popular AJAX libraries including dojo and jQuery. This talk will explore various mashups between these APIs and as well as covering how to integrate them with other non-Google mashable APIs.

Lightning Demos

During the networking hour, we invite our members that develop applications using Google Technology to do brief demos of 5 minutes or less. Please contact Van Riper to indicate your interest to demo your stuff. Time permitting, we will include as many demos as possible before the main event.
