From the Community Manager at Joost:

We’re delighted to invite you to Joost’s first developer days, a chance for you to meet some of our developers, get some tips for building widgets for the http://www.joost.com platform and share your own experiences in building them.

Who:
These workshops are aimed at developers with at least basic knowledge of html and javascript

What:
* a (free) lunch
* short presentations from the widgets team at Joost, including an introduction to building widgets, and an update on widget features in new releases
* a preview of our first commercial widget
* the opportunity to work on a widget or two yourself or use the workshops to get hands-on help for widgets you’ve started to develop.
* we’ll finish up with a drink or two and some free stuff to take away.

Where and when:
* initially in three locations: London, Amsterdam and New York.

London (Covent Garden) – 1pm – 6pm – Friday 16th November
Amsterdam (Central location) – 1pm – 6pm – Saturday 1st December
New York (Broad Street) – 12pm – 5pm – Friday 7th December

We expect places to fill quickly so please RSVP (to dev-workshop@joost.com ) as soon as possible, and let us know which Developer Day you would like to attend and whether you would like to
bring a friend or colleague. We’ll then send you more details on the location and format of the day. You may have to go on a waiting list, but we’ll let you know if that happens.

Even if you can’t make the above dates or venues, please let us know if you’re interested in coming to a similar event next year and which location would be best for you.

Please note that some of the presentations will be filmed and we’ll be uploading them onto a special Developer Channel in Joost later in the year.
