ROOM: PAI 3.14
Chris Nystrom, founder of NewI\O, will be giving a tech talk on NewI\O.
NewI\O is an internet application system. It is similar to many things, but it is, to my knowledge, not exactly like anything.
It is something like a Rich Internet Application system. So in some ways it would be a competitor to things like Sun's Java System (the system, not the programming language), Flash, etc. However, unlike these systems, there is no application downloading involved. The programs run on the server.

UPDATE: The park is in good condition and the rain has left, so Big Event will stay at Eastwoods Park as planned. See you there.
Open to all CS majors, ACM members, professors, and staff members!
Big Event is our biannual barbecue and social, chock full of food, games, prizes, and great people. Take some time off and mingle with friends and professors while enjoying catering from Rudy's Barbecue. Big Event takes place in Eastwoods Park, just north of campus, and generally lasts about three hours. If you can't stay the whole time, no worries.
Eastwoods Park is located on Harris Park Ave. and Dean Keeton, a short walk from campus. Limited parking is usually available along Harris Park Avenue, adjacent to Eastwoods.
