Winchester Web Scene

Promoting, connecting and inspiring local web talent

This week's meetup at the Bishop on the Bridge went very well indeed. We were pleased to see some newcomers, particularly those from IBM, thanks for coming along!

I learnt a bit of Kohana and object oriented PHP from Syd - thank you very much! Screen sharing on macs is so much fun - then people the other side of the table can see what we're doing! :)

Links shared:
passwordmaker.sourceforge.net/passwordmaker.html - SHA1 hash algorithm for super-secure passwords
yougetsignal.com - geeky IP network tools with a pretty front-end
tweetstats.com - nice graphs of your Twitter usage

An idea:
We discussed a Twitter version of Wikipedia - could be fun to try and capture the essence of each article in under 140 characters. There is already a simple.wikipedia.org - we are suggesting twitter.wikipedia.org

Future meetup
A few of us have been wondering about The Hyde Tavern for a meetup - would be good to hear your thoughts here:
