April User Group :: Lessons from my.barackobama.com
Harvard Pilgrim Health Care (map)
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 (free) admission to this event.

Elena Zannoni+1 guestIt was a great presentation. The real value I believe was in the insights shared about the strategy of the BO campaign. The technical side was a bit light, but that's ok.
