Developers + Techies



A handful of GDG Jedi (Todd Nakamura, Jugal Shah and Katy Kasmai) will take a dive into Wearable technology, along the way showing you some of the nuts and bolts of developing Android Wear and Google Glass enabled apps. We'll be building an app or two prior to the event, and we'll show you how the different features are enabled and controlled through live code demos.



Entrepreneurs & Other Business Folk

Clark Lagemann of Scarlet Startups (and many other ventures) and Anthony Frasier of Brick City Tech (and also many other ventures) will be showing you some of their favorite time-saving, efficiency-increasing, blood-pressure-lowering tech tips and tricks that everyone should be using in their personal and professional lives.
