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.

Chris,
Thanks for making the November 2013 GatorJUG and OrlandoJUG meetings a success. Everyone liked your presentation and we learned a lot. I noticed more questions after your talk than in the majority of other presentations we've had. People were tuned in and listening. Spring *is* a big deal and you dissected it well. All the best, Michael
Hi Chris - thanks for the great presentation last night at the GatorJUG.
