Info/Notes:	April User Group :: Lessons from my.barackobama.com Barack Obama's presidential campaign was praised for being one of the most technically savvy ever. What most people don't realize, though, was a lot of that technology was powered by PHP and created right here in Boston at Blue State Digital. Please join BostonPHP, Josh King and Chuck Hagenbuch as they discuss their experiences building and scaling some of the tools which powered my.barackobama.com and the millions of phone calls and billion emails that helped make history on January 20th, 2009. PLEASE NOTE: Building Security does not allow "walk-ins". Please RSVP now to reserve your spot and admission to this event.

Info/Notes:	BostonPHP is the unofficial, highly biased and overly ambitious PHP Users Group for Boston and its surrounding communities. Our membership ranges from newbie-to-techie. We discourage RTFM attitudes and encourage you to come see what PHP is all about. BostonPHP works in conjunction with BostonPHP Meetup, usually meeting the first Wednesday of every month for structured presentation at a local university or business location, and then typically moves on to a nearby restaurant/bar/pub for more informal discussion .
