New Web 2.0 Presentation
It's all about the API (Application Program Interface), a bit of code that allows one on-line application to talk to another. Combine the right ones and you create something totally new and uniquely powerful. Many of the most popular Web 2.0 technologies feature an API that allows users like you and me to combine them with others to make our very own applications. For example, take a little Google Maps and mash it up with a GPS client, and maybe a little instant messaging and Voila! You have an application that can track delivery drivers, travelers, or even kids on a school trip. You don't have to be a programmer to create a Mashup. Come learn about the best Mashups, how they're made, and how you can make your own.
Location: Indianapolis Junior Achievement 7435 North Keystone Avenue
Indianapolis, IN 46240
Registration time: 8:30-9:00
Presentation: 9:00-11:30
Closing: 11:30-12:00

One thing I have come to understand with technology and media is that everything new is nothing new at all; they're just new ways of looking at things. How we communicate and connect today can be traced back to how people have always communicated and connected. Digital and social media ...

"Interconnected Age", Budget, change, marketing, new media, social media, web 2.0 |
