update Calagator::Event 1250463650 IxDA & AIGA: Digital Dialogues Roll back

description Digital Dialogues is a quarterly event series developed by AIGA Portland in partnership with IxDA and sponsored by FILTER Talent and ISITE Design. Each event provides a sneak peek into a different collaborative case study. Date: Wed, Feb 20, 2012 Time: 5:30pm – 7:30pm Location: ISITE Design Community Room 2030 NW Pettygrove Street Portland, OR 97209 Register: http://digitaldialogues-thebrigade.eventbrite.com Price to attend | Free for AIGA members, $10 for non-members Food / Beer / Wine will be provided. Join the team from The Brigade as they give us a glimpse into their process of designing, developing and managing the Spotify On Tour project. Spotify asked the Portland design studio to create a memorable and socially engaging experience that introduced concertgoers and their Facebook friends to the vast Spotify music library. In response, The Brigade transformed a tour bus into a giant, crowd-controlled boombox. Using their iPhones, connected users could play any song in the Spotify library, creating a massive, party-curated playlist blasting from the bus (which also doubled as a bar). They built a unique experience while also handling everything from the Boombox app and backend architecture, to social media engagement via a microsite and Facebook app, Instagram, and Twitter. Anything can and will happen on tour. What do you do when cellular reception is disrupted, the satellite is blocked and somebody spilled a beer on the pep wave router? Find our how The Brigade designed a system to withstand the rigors of the road.

update Calagator::Event 1250463634 OEN Workshop in Hillsboro: Tax Issues for Startups Roll back

description Does the word "taxes" have you reacting with a blank, questionable stare? When making a list of priorities, startups tend to list taxes right above, "getting a plant service for the office." As with most startups, there may be a significant period of time before the business becomes profitable. However, there are business decisions you make today that can greatly affect your income tax situation in the future. These decisions include what type of entity your company wants to be, where your company wants to be located or even how your company obtains sales. Also, there are other types of taxes besides income, e. g. sales, payroll and B & O, that can distract you from the beginning. Andrew Meyers will help get you through the startup "tax maze" so that you can more effectively focus on growing your startup and be well positioned for long-term success. Speaker: Andrew Meyers Andrew joined the Perkins & Co tax department in 2005 and is a member of our high-tech/emerging growth and real estate practice groups. Andrew has diversified experience managing tax engagements in a wide variety of companies in several industries, including distributors, manufacturing, technology and real estate. His experience includes working with all types of entity structures; however, much of his time is spent assisting our corporate clients engaged in the manufacturing of technology related products who file in multiple jurisdictions. This gives him a wide range of knowledge in areas related to state/local nexus and filing requirements, revenue recognition issues and research & development credits, as well as other challenges businesses confront in this industry. Prior to joining us, Andrew spent a year and a half as an auditor at a mid-size local firm in Portland where he served manufacturing, technology and privately held businesses. Andrew holds a Bachelor of Science in Accounting as well as Economics from Portland State University. He is a licensed CPA and a member of the AICPA and OSCPA. He is also a member of YPOP, a networking organization for young professionals in the Portland metro area. When: Wednesday, May 15 Time: 4:00PM - 6:00PM Where: Hillsboro Chamber of Commerce, 5193 NE Elam Young Parkway, Suite A, Hillsboro, OR 97124 OEN & HCC Member: $32 Non-Member $70 Does the word "taxes" have you reacting with a blank, questionable stare?

description COPIOUS is a user-centered digital experience agency. We build digital products with the user at heart and technology in our bones. We recently moved to a new office and now have a large space to host our TechTalks. **About TechTalks:** COPIOUSLabs TechTalks series meets every other Friday at 1pm at the COPIOUS offices. Our talks span artificial intelligence, new programming languages and techniques, computational linguistics, geographic data processing, systems and software architecture, augmented reality, network security, and more as proposed to the Copious engineering team. **About this talk:** Speaker: [Andrew Havens](http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=18637930&locale=en_US&trk=tyah) Single-page applications are becoming increasingly popular. Moving more logic to the client-side can make it harder to stay organized. This talk will cover how Backbone.js, a JavaScript MVC-like library, can help you stay organized and simplify your code. We'll also show an example of how to get started using Backbone.js in a Ruby on Rails application. All are welcome to attend. If you have a talk that you'd like to suggest presenting, please email it to [email protected] along with a brief outline of what you'd like to cover.

description Mobile Workgroup Weekly Meeting At: Lucky Lab 915 SE Hawthorne Blvd. Portland, OR 97214 Phone: 503-236-3555 6-9 pm Thursday Feb 21st A weekly workgroup for Engineers working on personal mobile projects. Beginners are encouraged to attend. We welcome software and hardware Engineers working on Android, iOS, and all mobile platforms. Working on projects by yourself can be difficult because don't get the feedback or interaction you get in an office environment. Online sites such as stackoverflow.com are great resources for answering well defined questions, but don't have the benefits of personal interactions. When you are part of a community you get to know others with similar interests, get an immediate response to hard to describe problems, bounce ideas off of others, and learn by example. The PDX Mobile Workgroup is designed to fill the void for engineers who would otherwise work on their projects in relative isolation from other engineers. The group is informal. Once a week we sit around, talk, have a bite to eat, and work on our personal projects. There is no set schedule. Attendees stop by at various times after work and stay as long as they like. We do require at least 2 confirmed attendees. If you don't RSVP and just show, you will want to check the group site before traveling to be sure the meeting is happening.

description nil Shake off the winter blues with Amy Dubin, who will present on the myriad considerations all designers face in their roles as visual information disseminators. Being a designer means taking into account an enormous array of factors, which includes the business and marketing plans that drive demand for your product. Coming up with a product that fits the whole picture will make you not only competitive, but in demand. The tough part is-how to gain this knowledge when 'business' just isn't your thing? This talk offers practical resources to help you understand how big the 'whole picture' really is, where you fit, where you may lack particular skills and how to get them in the most painless way possible. Knowing who to ask for help, and when, is a key strategy and we'll uncover tactics to help you design your career, as well as your products, successfully. Apologies for shifting the date on this one... the second Thursday was Valentines day. Thanks to Vitamin-T for providing food; Thanks to Webtrends for the space; Thanks to Amy for presenting an interesting topic! -Eric Redmond, Organizer of meetup.com/pdxweb
