Hello Everyone,<br>
<br>
Just a quick reminder of some events we have coming up. Firstly we are
running a Twitter API Challenge on 4th November at 1:30pm in 32/3073,
we have designed a challenge, along with our sponsors, to give people a
chance to win some prizes just by playing around with the Twitter API.
It's really easy to do and you can do it in a whole host of languages,
you can check out the development wiki to find out more
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://apiwiki.twitter.com/">http://apiwiki.twitter.com/</a>). This is open to all UG, MSc and PhD
students and can be done in groups of up to 3 people. Don't worry about
your coding ability as the originality of the idea is as much included
in the judging. <b>Come along on Wednesday at 1:30pm in 32/3073</b> to
find out more!<br>
<br>
We are also taking deposits (£5) for the IBM Innovation Day on 25th
November at 1:10pm outside Zepler reception, the trip includes
transport to and from Hursley and is a great opportunity to learn how
the development process works in an industry setting. There are many
challenges across the day and the chance to win <b>prizes </b>for the
winning group! We are running this on a first come, first serve basis
and ask that people who have been before perhaps think of allowing
others to visit instead. <br>
<br>
Also we have a Hoodie Questionnaire up until next Monday, go to our
website and fill it in. It's very short and will only take a few
minutes to complete. You can find the questionnaire here:

Room 1, Zepler (blg. 59) Level 1 on 5th November. </b>Any questions
about ECSLug can be directed to the leader of the group:
