Notes
Welcome to Codetown!
Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

Alex, Hello and welcome to Codetown. I must have overlooked your joining up. I always welcome new members and especially people from the Gainesville area. By the way, we're having a Gainesville Java User Group meeting tomorrow at Santa Fe College, room S 326 from 6-9 and the topic is Android Design Patterns.
