Live LiveCode Code Event #22

[Mark]

It is a big pleasure to announce the 21st edition of the Live LiveCode Code Event with two interesting presentations. This weekend's event is scheduled for 7 May 2011 at 19:00h GMT (Sat. 22:00 in Moscow, Sat. 20:00 in Paris, Sat. 14:00 in New York, Sat. 11:00 in Los Angeles, Sun. 04:00 in Sydney, Sun. 03:00 in Tokyo, Sun. 2:00 in Beijing).

At the recent RunRev conference there was a contest, where attendees, and simulcast viewers, were asked to create a stack that was suitable for use on mobile devices, from scratch, using LiveCode. There were nine entries, with the winning entry being a jigsaw puzzle app that Colin made for the iPad. At this weeks meeting Colin will show the app, and go over all of the code that makes it work.

Jim's discussion will be touring pages and collecting links that can help the beginner, intermediate, and advanced users. There are quite a few resources available, but yet so many programmers do not know how to find them.

eHUG will be raffling off the e-book "Take Control of Media on Your iPad" courtesy of TidBITS. (These e-books normally cost 10 to 15 dollar).

Economy-x-Talk offers a 25% discount on their Installer Maker. A license at 25% discount can be obtained here.

Make sure to use ChatRev during the happening, otherwise you won't know where to watch the streams, which will be announced in ChatRev. Download ChatRev here or enter in the message box:

Dear LiveCoders,

Last Saturday, 7 May, we had another nice on-line gathering of LiveCode fans. This time we had 2 interesting presentations.

At the recent RunRev conference there was a contest, where attendees, and simulcast viewers, were asked to create a stack that was suitable for use on mobile devices, from scratch, using LiveCode. There were nine entries, with the winning entry being a jigsaw puzzle app that Colin made for the iPad. Colin showed us the app, and went over all of the code that makes it work.

Jim's introduced a collection of websites that can help the beginner, intermediate, and advanced users. There are quite a few resources available, but yet so many programmers do not know how to find them.

eHUG raffled off the e-book "Take Control of Media on Your iPad" courtesy of TidBITS. The e-book was won by Thierry.

We are still looking for people who are willing to do a presentation. Please look here for ideas and contact Björnke to tell him when you're available.

I hope to see you all at the event next time. We will be making announcements on this mailing list and at http://livecode.tv where you can also find a copy of this text.

Kind regards,

Mark
