2nd Hadoop Get Together Berlin

2008-08-12 Thread idrost
Hello,

I would like to announce that on Monday September 8, 2008  at 5:00pm in the 
newthinking store (Tucholskystr. 48, Berlin) the second Hadoop Get Together 
in Berlin is going to take place. Just like last time there will be slots of 
20min each for talks on your Hadoop topic. After each talk there will be a 
lot time to discuss.

You can order drinks directly at the bar in the newthinking store. If you 
like, you can order pizza. There are quite a few good restaurants nearby, so 
we can go there after the official part.

Talks scheduled so far:

Marc Hofer will talk about his experiences bringing UIMA to Hadoop.

Rasmus Hahn is going to share his experiences with Hadoop from the perspective 
of his projects at neofonie (http://www.neofonie.de).

We would like to invite you, the visitor to also tell your Hadoop story, if 
you like, you can bring slides - there will be a beamer.

A big Thanks goes to the newthinking store for providing a room in the center 
of Berlin for us.

Further details on talks scheduled, people attending and instructions on how 
to find the location can be found on upcoming:

Hope to see you there,
Isabel
