==Group Activity==* We're planning to try something a little different: a group mind-map, to warm up for the Breakout sessions.* Write down on the specified Post-It color (provided): Your name, and one of the following topics:** Green: the thing which made me most proud this week** Yellow: the library technology I'm most excited about right now** Pink: the most annoying thing about my library's website** Blue: something I'd like to see at the next Chicago Code4Lib meetup* Stick your post-it on the whiteboard in 1-470, ''close to another topic which you consider related''. Please feel free to move other peoples' post-it notes around!* Talk amongst yourselves. ==Breakout/Hackathon Sessions ~~@1:30-3:00~~==

* Up for debate: these are just some possible topics. We need four total.

* If you have an idea, add it to the list! If we end up with more than four, we will conduct a straw poll to determine the most relevant/popular.

* For inspiration, [http://wiki.code4lib.org/2015_Preconference_Proposals here is the list of pre-conference workshops] at the last national Code4Lib

~~# Headless CMSs (Wordpress~~===Meteor.js tutorial===* In web dev circles, ~~Drupal)?~~Meteor is the new hotness. It lets you make single-page apps which synchronize automatically between clients/users and the cloud/server. It also lets you kick out iOS and Android apps easily. It's pretty slick.# * Let's get a Meteor.js ~~tutorial?~~installation up and running. Be prepared for things not to work; let's figure them out together!~~# DocumentCloud?~~* No prior experience necessary, although familiarity with JavaScript will be useful. Allan's leading this one; he's not an expert or anything, and would welcome your input.# * Macintosh/Linux only, unless you have experience using Cygwin on Windows. ===Metadata/data hackathon~~? -~~ ===*A discussion around tools and workflows for cleaning up messy data; bring your own data sets to work on if you like# ===???===* -# ===???===* -

~~==3:15: more content, TBD (??)==~~

* What content do '''you''' want during this slot?
