Houston Adobe Users Group: Next Meeting 11/11 @ Internap
1301 Fannin; Suite #1150

Come check out this special presentation by Internap. Internap, among other things, provides high capacity video and audio content delivery services.

Come learn about how to leverage their services for your video library and live video needs. With the demands of video growing daily… And with FP10 just released, with its new speed and HD codecs, just knowing what your options are will be useful. This will be an informal chalk talk with Sr. Engineer, Tommy Cormier. Time permitting, we will also take a tour of the facility.

Please RSVP at the following link:

Please either post to this group (http://groups.google.com/group/houstonaug) or to our blog (http://www.houstonaug.org) or send me an email at dshefman@gmail.com if you have some recommendations.

I *might* go back to Ziggy’s (the only complaint there was the food didn’t match what people had wanted to eat). But that’s why I’m looking for other options.

Free Parking (or validated)
Space available 3rd or 4th Mon or Tues of each Month from about 6-8

Preferred:
Projector, Screen and Speakers already there
Entrances that are not locked during the meeting time (IE you don’t have to call to get in)
A/C that is not turned off during meeting time

Nice to Haves:
Internet available to presenter
Food options

Spectacular to Haves:
Wireless internet for everyone
Drink options
Sponsored food options
