Mobile Analytics: Who? What? When? WHERE?
Roll back
| description |

Answering questions like, “What percentage of people who hit the home page put something in their shopping cart?” is old hat.
But combine analytics with mobile and you get a new set of questions like, “What percentage of people in our store looked up product information on their phone? How can we correlate that behavior with sales?”
One of the heralded eight unique abilities of mobile is that “mobile has the most accurate audience measurement”. Yet most businesses and developers have yet to consider how to track mobile usage accurately, let alone how mobile might be able to provide better information.
Mobile analytics isn’t solely about the web either. Analytics for native applications can help game developers figure out what levels players are having the most trouble on and determine which promotions increase in-app purchases most.
On the highly competitive playing field of mobile, any small edge can make a difference.
We’re excited to have an expert panel this month to talk about Mobile Analytics. Frankly, you’re not going to find another opportunity to get such a diverse set of opinions on mobile analytics. You won’t want to miss it!
<b>New this Month: In Depth Afternoon Sessions</b>
We love getting great speakers, but we never seem to have enough time with them, especially when they are on a panel and is made worse when speakers travel a long way to present at our meeting.
So this month we’re trying something different. In addition to the normal evening meeting, each panelist will also have a session in the late afternoon where they can talk more in-depth about their products and how they can be used.
The sessions start at 3 pm and last thirty minutes each. Space is limited so sign up now to attend.
http://mobileportland.com/events/mobile-analytics-depth-sessions

Mobile Analytics In Depth Sessions
Roll back

Are you have a mobile app or website? Then you need to make time on Monday afternoon for the Mobile Analytics In Depth sessions.
See we love getting great speakers, but we never seem to have enough time with them. Each panelist gets at most seven minutes at the beginning to talk about what their company and product does before the panel discussion begins.
And of course the panel discussion is going to be enlightening, but it is going to focus on the big picture of mobile analytics which may not be as helpful if you’re trying to figure out the nitty gritty details of how to track your mobile app or website.
Frankly, when you’ve got Flurry, Ground Truth and WebTrends in the house, how can you resist the opportunity to pick their brains more?
The sessions will start at 3 pm. Each speaker will have 30 minutes with some time after for questions. We’ll wrap up around 5 pm giving you time to grab a bite to eat or you can stick around and mingle with the other attendees and speakers. We’ll start up the normal meeting around 6 pm like usual.
So come by Mobile Portland early on Monday for this more intimate and in-depth look at Flurry, Ground Control, and WebTrends and stick around for the main event later in the evening.
<b>When</b>
Monday, August 22nd
Mobile Analytics In Depth Sessions: 3 - 5 pm
Mobile Portland Meeting w/ Analytics Panel: 6 pm
<b>RSVP</b>
Please RSVP for the afternoon sessions.
http://mobileportland.com/events/mobile-analytics-depth-sessions
Please RSVP separately for the evening Mobile Portland meeting.
http://mobileportland.com/events/mobile-analytics-who-what-when-where
<b>Cost</b>
Both events are free. Space in the afternoon session may be limited so sign up in advance!

Each workshop will familiarize participants with a programming language and its ecosystem through tutorials, practice exercises, and one-on-one help from volunteer guides. Attendees will learn the basic skills and vocabulary needed to start participating in the relevant user groups and open source projects.
In keeping with our goal of increasing gender diversity, we open these workshops to all self-identified women and genderqueer persons. Men are welcome to attend when invited by an attending member of these qualifying groups. |

Code 'n' Splode: Exploring an Android App
Roll back
| description |
In this episode of Code N Splode, Sarah Sharp will lead an exploration of the guts of an Android App called Garden Weather Alert. We'll cover some of the basics of Android App structure: intents, activities, and services. I'll also show the app development workflow in the Eclipse Android SDK, and how to debug apps. If time permits, we'll talk about storage and background services.
The git repo for the app is here:
https://github.com/sarahsharp/gardengeek
The android app source code is under the src/android-get-temp/ directory. Feel free to browse the source code history to see how I've added functionality over time.
**Note: Code-n-Splode (CnS) is a women-focused group. All women are invited to attend and participate, and men are welcome as the guest of a female participant.
For more information, visit our website, or send an email to <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/code-n-splode">our list</a>. |

Lessons from managing way too many databases at Facebook
Roll back
| description |
Rob Wultsch, a recent addition to Facebook's Database Operations team, will compare and contrast the Facebook deployment with his previous work with another large deployment of open source databases. In this db-agnostic talk, he'll go over: the bizarre becoming ordinary, the many types of infrastructure that do not scale and what does and does not work when building a DBA team.
Before joining Facebook, Rob worked for a very large hosting company as a database administrator and a newspaper as a web developer. In his free time he enjoys riding his motorcycle and bicycle and fantasizes about moving to Portland.
As always, beer afterwards at the Lucky Lab. See you there! |

Agile Metrics that Matter
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
Good business decisions require relevant and valid information. Deciding what information is relevant can be challenging – especially as organizations transition to Agile development and project management methods. This presentation will explore ways to use the Goal-Question-Metric (GQM) technique to inform good decisions by identifying some relevant reporting measures when applying the Agile scrum methodology.
Agile teams value working software over comprehensive documentation. Teams deliver working software in short, iterative releases of business value rather than larger releases of longer duration. This increases the need to make quick decisions and the need for relevant and timely information. GQM provides a goal-driven way to identify the information our stakeholders really need.
This presentation will walk through using GQM, look at examples of applying it, review some relevant Agile measures and discuss relevant measures for different stakeholders. Audience participation is expected. |

----------
PJUG meetings start with some time to eat and socialize (pizza and beverages are provided), followed by the featured speaker, then Q&A, discussion, sometimes a drawing to give away swag. :)
Though we like knowing how many people to expect, you don't *have* to RSVP, on Upcoming or otherwise. Go ahead and just show up!
Many people also go for a drink and further discussion following the meeting, at a location determined ad hoc (lately, Trees restaurant in the same building).
