The Hotel Utah open mic is the epicenter of San Francisco's singer-songwriter community. Its stage attracts performers at all stages of their careers: from seasoned veterans to first-timers. It attracts music fans who know a good thing when they see it. The musicians who come regularly don't come just to get a little "stage time" - they come because of the community that calls Monday at The Utah home - and the musicians that come in for the first time eventually start to come regularly... So come on down this monday, have a beer, bring your guitar if that's your thing, and sit back and enjoy. Feature performer - ARTEMAS http://www.myspace.com/artemasishuman

The poker tournament (not for real cash) starts at 7 PM. Crowd: Poker players? Venue: Moscone Center - Room 300. Seriously, this is inside the Moscone Center, so how desirable of a venue can this room be? Invite: If you actually want to play poker, need to register in advance at the URL below.

Google App Engine puts your applications on Google's infrastructure. Just write your app, and you can scale and grow it without having to manage your own server or data center. In this session we will explore the different concepts that are important to that infrastructure for your own applications, and how to build and maintain your application using the Google App Engine SDK and management tools. The environment consists of a dynamic web server, persistent storage with queries, sorting and transactions, automatic scaling and load balancing, email and authentication services. The first language supported in Google App Engine is Python. BIO: Dick Wall is a Google Developer Advocate, a Java and Python developer and enthusiast with around 15 years of programming experience, and a keen podcaster (co-host of the Java Posse podcast) not necessarily in that order. $15.00 for non-SDForum members; Free to members.
