The October meeting of our group was held on Oct. 15, 2009 in room TC 210 on the ICC East Peoria campus. Our main speakers were from OIC group - Online Innovative Creations. They spoke about their content management system. Fred Dirske (President, Online Innovative Creations) prodived an introduction to their CMS. Jonathan Worent (senior Developer and local WOW chapter president) then provided an introduction to the CMS itself and the framework in which it was developed. He was followed by Phillip Ball (from the San Diego office of OIC) who devled into the technical details of their offering. All responded to several insightful questions from the audience. Those who wish to download a copy to try it out can visit http://exponentframework.org/. The presentation was captured in ConnectPro (since Phillip was participating from San Diego). I am presently working on making this presentation available. Contact me if you wish specific details.

A number of prizes were awarded to those in attendance. These included t-shirts from OIC and some Windows 7 prizes and software certificates (for anti-virus and related products). These were provided by David Sinclair who recently hosted a Windows 7 event locally.

After the OIC presentation, I briefly covered my experiences at the recent AdobeMAX conference. More information is posted on my weblog (http://www.markdubois.info/weblog/). This includes links to a number of photos and a video on YouTube announcing iPhone support for Flash. I also spent a little time demonstrating some of the interesting thigs one can do with Pixel Bender (and showed some working examples). The meeting lasted roughly 2 hours and was well attended.
