Houston User Group Visits – October 2016 (Videos)

I spent nearly a week in Texas, visiting four user groups and talking about Couchbase as much as possible.

The second two days of the week I spent in Houston. Here are the videos:

Houston.js Group – I Have a NoSQL Toaster

I visited the Houston.js meetup on October 12th. The Iron Yard hosted the meetup. It was a cool little boot camp / startup facility, with a great mix of people with a variety of focuses: experienced, new, enterprise, startup, were all in attendance.

Unfortunately, the video of my screen didn’t record correctly, so I just have video of myself and the projector. But you can get the slides for I Have a NoSQL Toaster from SpeakerDeck and follow along if you want].

Houston .NET User Group

Finally, I visited the Houston .NET User Group, which I learned may be the oldest .NET user group in the nation. It was a very unique group and very lively.

They were kind enough to give me a (very comfortable) polo shirt featuring the user group logo. If you are in the Houston area, you simply must attend one of these meetings, even if you aren’t a .NET developer.

Resumen

Thank you, Houston, and thank you, Texas! Let’s do it again some time.

If you’d like me to visit your user group or conference, I’d love to! Ask me on twitter at @mgroves or leave a comment below.
