Freebase User Group meeting April 16, 2008

It's time for another Freebase user group meeting! Last time we had some great talks about data mining, community-building, geodata, programming applications using the Freebase API, and more. We're planning more of the same (if not better) this time round.

Current, very provisional list of speakers:

• Brian Karlak - Wikipedia imports and how we do them
  
• Jamie Taylor - Improving Freebase with Greasemonkey
  
• Robert, Jeff, and Jamie - Live Action Schema Modeling
  
• Will Moffat - Acre, a new development tool for Freebase
  
• Paul/Jason - New Freebase apps
  

(These are still very much subject to change.)

Swing by the Metaweb offices to see what's new with Freebase, find out what data we're loading up, learn how to build apps based on Freebase, and more. There'll be talks from Metaweb staff and the Freebase community, as well as free beer and pizza.

Doors open 6:30pm for a 7pm start.
