Google Recruits At The JUG
And other stories
We had another interesting JUG meeting tonight. Naeem Bari of Agilis Systems gave an interesting talk about GPS and GIS. It all about map servers and map data and trilateralization and geodesic datum and GoogleMap API. The slides and sample code will be posted to the JUG knowledge base shortly.
Our presentation line-up looks pretty good. In the next few months, we will be covering JSF, FIT, jBPM and Grails.
Several new companies start to make their appearances at the JUG. Google came out recruiting for system administrators.
OCI and Advantage Consulting also have multiple openings. Please email Ken Totten if you are interested.
