June Meetup – Dates & Times in PHP & Javascript

Friday, May 21st, 2010

Come learn about functions and techniques that make working with dates in PHP and Javascript easy. This is more than just the date() function. We’ll cover time zones, date math, and even convert dates to those cool “xx minutes ago” displays.

I’m going to try to get a copy of php|architect’s Guide to Date and Time Programming to raffle off, too!

After last month’s successful meeting, we’re returning to the IIT Rice campus in Wheaton. Admission is $5.

Important changes to the May 6th PHP meetup

Thursday, April 29th, 2010

Hey everyone,

I’ve made some changes to the May PHP meetup, and thought I’d drop
everyone a line to let you know what’s up.

First of all, the May 6th meeting is moving to IIT’s Dan and Ada Rice
Campus in Wheaton
. Eric Michalsen’s FVCP group has been meeting there,
and it’s a really nice facility – easy to get to, plenty of parking,
and it’s near a ton of restaurants in case you want to grab a bite
before or after the meeting. I’m grateful to Viveli for hosting us
while they could, but they’re expanding their staff and will be
repurposing that awesome game room to make room for more developers.

IIT is charging us a reasonable fee for use of the room, so I’m adding
a $5 charge for this month’s meetup (payable at the door) to cover all
or most of the cost.

I apologize for these changes after so many of you have RSVPed. If you
want to change your RSVP, please visit

Thanks, and I hope to see you at the Meetup!
