Saying there was excitement when FaceBook made an API available for developers is like saying it rains in Vancouver. But here's something you might not know. The folks who created Project Opus have also created a Project Opus MP3 player for FaceBook that's powered by Drupal - and they're talking!!!

Join us Thursday August 30th as David Gratton, Ross Howard-Jones and James Andres from the Donat Group do an encore of their Vancouver BarCamp presentation on the FaceBook MP3 player powered by Drupal.

As always, there will be a Question and Answer session for questions on anything Drupal and a chance to tell the group about any cool stuff you've been working on.

Date: Thursday August 30th, 6:30pm
Location: Bryght Offices, 1 Alexander Street, Suite 400 in Gastown. [Map] (Details below).

For those who don't need to leave right away there's typically a more social discussion at a local pub afterwards.

Location Details

Bryght Offices

The Bryght Offices are located at 1 Alexander Street, Suite 400 in Gastown. [Map]
There's a security intercom at the door, so you'll need to buzz to get in.

Kid's Room

In recognition of people with families the Bryght conference room is available as a kids room. It is next to the presentation area and has glass walls so your kids will always be in sight. We can't provide child-minding or babysitting services - we just provide the room and leave it to you to entertain your kids. We suggest you bring appropriate toys/books/other entertainment.

See that it needs a password to watch a stream... Any further info as to how you might be streaming tomorrow?
