7:30pm
And we’re back! Our 30th meetup is drawing ever closer, and with it, our collective mid-life crisis. But fear not, Berlin’s dazzling tech scene is currently spoiling us with amazing conferences (jsconf.eu and reject.js, and there’s Javascript helicopters in there somewhere as well) and attracting smart beings from all around the globe, some of which will be speaking at up.front! This one should be excellent.
Hover into co.up’s third floor at 7:30 for talks and general
interestingness, and join us later at Lugosi for casual lounging and tasty, discounted drinks.

Max Ogden is a javascript developer from Oregon, USA who worked at @codeforamerica last year and started a company called @gather this year.
