Feature Event: Entity Reference
Map of Internet
In this meeting we'll look at entity references, how they're useful and how to set up a simple example.

We realize that having a physical meeting in Ames might not be accessible for some people in the Des Moines area. We now have a second location set up at Webpec in Urbandale. We'll attempt to link with Google hangouts.

About CIDUG Meetings

The first hour is our feature presentation where someone presents about a particular topic. After the presentation the meeting changes to an open discussion/question time. If you have a question, learned something cool, or would like to bounce ideas around with others, please come and share!

Please do sign up so you get a reminder the day before.

See you there!

Google Hangouts

I'm sure this has been asked before, but would the Google Hangout be publicly accessible? 6-8 is a tough time slot for me to be away from home, but I'd love to dial in and participate.

We would like to have people

We would like to have people meet face to face if they can. I've been posting the URL a few minutes before each meeting and if you request to join the meeting we'll let you in. I haven't figured out how to make this new version of Google hangouts/meet to allow unrestricted participation.
