The Ember.js San Francisco Meetup is the first Ember.js meetup group, in the birthplace of Ember (we think). Let's get together periodically to talk about code, eat, drink, and generally geek out. See you there!

Australian-founded in 2005, we're headquartered in downtown San Francisco and we build easy-to-use products that help people work smarter with digital documents. We've hired a great team of engineers here in San Francisco in the last few months to not only bolster our desktop products but to also engineer a beta cloud platform to ease the collaborating, signing, and sending process. www.nitropdf.com www.nitropdf.com/jobs www.nitropdf.com/about www.nitropdf.com/nobullshit

If your growing list of Javascript books, articles, and tutorials to read through is as long as your list of projects to experiment with--and you know you're never going to finish all of them alone--this group is for you. Considering the pace of evolution in the Javascript world, trying to stay on top of all that's happening is at best optimistic, and at worst a fool's game. But don't surrender! Enjoy the support and encouragement of a community of like-minded Javascript coders and enthusiasts. …

There are several Meetup book clubs in the East Bay, but many of them are specialized (e.g., women-only, we only read such-and-such books, etc.), or their meetings fill to capacity so fast that I never get a chance to rsvp - so I decided to start this one. I previously participated in a fantastic book club in Chicago, which gave me the opportunity to read some great books that I probably wouldn't have found on my own. I hope to continue that trend here! This is a mixed-gender book club for anyon …

The SPEED channel no longer airs MotoGP. Well how can we watch it and stay up to date on practice, qualifiers and the race? I'd like to invite you to join myself and others to watch all of the MotoGP races throughout the season in the East Bay, located at my house or other locations to be determined. As the attendance increases, I will begin projecting it for better visibility. The races tend to land on a weekend and the final race on a Sunday. What circuit the race is at and the time zone, will …

Its now 2013 and after a hiatus we're getting the group back on track so hope to see you all there on Tuesdays! Best, Jessa What is Coworking? Coworking is redefining the way we do work. The idea is simple: that independent professionals, freelancers, and those with workplace flexibility work better together than they do alone.¹ Coworking answers the question that so many face when working from home: “Why isn’t this as fun as I thought it would be?” Beyond just creating better places to work, co …

This group is designed for developers looking to discover APIs and services that can help speed up and modularize their development and so time is not wasted re-inventing wheels. We will meet and learn the ins and outs of a new API every week, and why that API is relevant to development. Every API demo will be fun and engaging, and the goal of this meetup is not only to learn, but to also have a great time and make friends!

I'm reviving this group to transfer over the members from the Alameda Public Library Android Classes (which is now called the Alameda - Google Developer Group). This is both to expand the geographical location we're going to have our meetings in and to keep a more Android-topic focused group (while the Alameda - GDG is currently expanding its topics to non-Android related topics as well).

We have a lot to learn from each other about how to thrive in wider society as well as how to live in less conventional …

I love to code. It's something I want everyone to learn. I spend a lot of my free time teaching people I know, and I wanted to reach out to a larger audience. Coding: in this day and age it's a great skill to have. It not only adds to the ways we can solve problems, it also provides a language and context for sharing solutions to complex problems. In this meetup I'll be teaching you how to code. We'll start by learning how to find and run other people's open source code. That means we are settin …

This Meetup group is for at-home dads in San Francisco! We're all about our kids and doing fun stuff with them during the "work week" (M-F): walks and hikes and playgrounds and sports and art and beer and books... anything really. All of us play a sizable caregiving role with our little ones, but some of us balance that role with part-time work, working evenings or weekends, consulting, project-based work, looking for a job, etc. Our meetups tend to occur on Mondays at 10am (rotating between Dol …

Despite the attention hogging explosive growth of the mobile app, the browser remains the foundation of the web and is a vital component of the internet. It is not going away and there has been a raft of technical advances taking it to the next level. Faster javascript engines, faster graphics libraries with GPU support, lower latency networking, HTML5 and exciting new technologies such as DART and NaCl are redefining what can be done in the browser. A whole new generation of near native perform …

Are you annoyed that you have to separate the people that "know jQuery" from the people that actually know JavaScript? Know which direction the browser reads CSS and why that matters for performance? Know how opacity alters compositing in the GPU? Have SpeedTracer, DynaTrace, and others installed on your machine? This group is for you. Moderated by a past core developer of Firebug.
