London Ruby User Group:ElasticSearch
ElasticSearch
This month, Frederick Cheung will be talking to LRUG about ElasticSearch.
Most apps need some form of search or filtering at some point (even if they don't need full text). Elasticsearch is a new(ish) search engine built on top of Lucene with some interesting features that set it apart from other search engines such as sphinx or solr.
Frederick will show what we've used elasticsearch for and why we picked it over competing solutions such as solr or sphinx.

Gavin Bell's Creating Social Applications
Creating a successful social application means building a model of a task we commonly do and understanding the social motivations for your community and the individual. The task and the community may vary widely, but the concepts of social objects and the smallest useful application (or minimum viable product) give focus to the design of the application. Gavin Bell’s two day Creating Social Applications course teaches you how to create social applications for the web or mobile, as described in his book. Find out more here
Peter Lubbers' HTML5 Mobile Mastery
Over the course of three action-packed days, HTML5 Mobile Mastery covers
all the new features in HTML5 with an eye toward practical applications,
especially for mobile application development. The course aims to be
highly practical, too, outlining current browser support, trends in the
market, common gotchas, and how to make the new features work in older
browsers. To find out about learning objectives, course dates and how to

Damjan Vujnovic's Advanced JavaScript Workshop
As Douglas Crockford once said, JavaScript is the world's most misunderstood programming language. It is also one of the world's most popular programming languages and one of the cornerstones of a modern web application development. With web clients becoming thicker and more complex, it is no longer easy to get away with sloppy, ad-hoc JavaScript programming style. In this advanced JavaScript hands-on course you will learn how to write good code (by employing its good features and avoiding quirks and common pitfalls).

LRUG is the London Ruby User Group; a community of ruby developers based in and around London. We meet up at least once a month; on the 2nd Wednesday of the month we have meetings with talks, demos and such-like and then we have pub-based meetups organised on an ad-hoc basis (roughly half-way between meetings).
