Houston D2Sig
D2Sig (Device Developers Special Interest Group) is a user group that meets monthly to discuss the latest in mobile device development technologies and the supporting ecosystem. The meetings are free and are a community effort open to all interested participants. Each month, there will be a different presenter from various companies. In addition to the technology and development patterns, D2SIG will investigate the environment surrounding this technological phenomenon. We will delve into the technology, where and how to make money with it and maybe even guess where it's heading. D2SIG is device and manufacturer independent - we want to look at iPhone, Android, Windows Phone 7 and all other devices impacting mobile computing.
D2SIG is held the third Wednesday of each month at the Microsoft Houston Office - 2000 W Sam Houston Pkw S, Houston, TX 77042
