About

What
Py Web SF is a Python meet-up with a strong focus on Web technology. From frameworks like WSGI/Pylons/TurboGears/Django to libraries like httplib2 to using emerging Web technologies like Amazon’s AWS and Freebase – its all covered.

The emphasis is on practical, hands-on lectures and discussion. Meetings start with one or two 20-30 minute presentations and end with informal discussion. Hackathon-style collaboration and project demos are encouraged.

When and Where
The meeting is usually held on a Tuesday or Thursday at the end of each month, at the San Francisco main public library [Google maps] starting at 6pm. The library is easily accessible via both BART and Muni at the Civic Center station.

Can I be a speaker?
Sure. We are always looking for speakers. Just send an email to Niall.

Mailing list
We have a moderated mailing list. To join, simply send an email (contents don’t matter) to pyweb-sf+subscribe@unworkable.org.

Follow PyWebSF on Twitter. Feel free to use the #pywebsf hash tag for Tweets related to Py Web SF! I use them myself for Tweeting announcements, updates etc. Use Twitter search to find them.

Event Calendar
We also have a Google Calendar to facilitate tracking our meetings.

   Hi IA,

   Thanks for your interest in this talk! The meet hasn’t happened yet. After the talk (2009-09-29), I’m sure Jamie will be kind enough to send me the slides. Check back in a week or so, they’ll probably be up and linked by then.

   I knew this was a Python meetup. (Passing by, all of a sudden I see whitespace-sensitive code on a projector…in some random library conference room.) Wish I’d had time Tuesday to actually stay.

   Any set date for Oct yet, or ought I just add the gCal to mine?

   Hi there,

   Thanks for your interest! No set date yet, but probably the last week of October. Once I get a date confirmed, I’ll add it to the Google Calendar. You’ll also see the announcement on our mailing list and the website, of course.
