At the Hyperpublic office we try to have a "developer lunch" every Wednesday around 12:30. Each week someone from the engineering team presents on a topic of interest or technology that they think the team will find interesting. We generally believe that the more hackers hanging around the office the better, and as such we're happy to host outside developers who are interested in coming by and learning about the topic at hand.
This week @ericxtang will present on the popular open source search server, Apache Solr. He'll focus not only on the out of the box features, but as usual with any Hyperpublic tech talk, he'll focus on geo-location specific features and how you may have to modify client libraries in order to get support for the types of location queries you need.
If you're interested in joining just email doug@hyperpublic.com to RSVP, and bring your own lunch at 12:30 to our office.
