[UPHPU] UPHPU Meeting Tonight @ 7pm | Joseph Scott presenting on WordPress APIs, XML-RPC & AtomPub | Geek Lunch Friday in Orem

[Victor Villa]

Greets all,

 

I'm very pleased to announce that Joseph Scott, Bug Exorcist for Automattic,
will be presenting this Thursday at 7pm.

 

Joseph will be presenting on WordPress APIs, XML-RPC & AtomPub.  WordPress
has two sets of APIs available for third party clients, XML-RPC and AtomPub.
We'll cover the background and details about both, how OAuth may fit in the
future and then dive into PHP examples of how to use XML-RPC to manage your
WordPress blog.

 

Joseph is a California native, living in Utah with his wife and two
daughters. He got hooked on email when it meant dialing into a BBS with a
2400 baud modem and ended up memorizing way too much of the AT command set.
Access to the Internet changed all that and going to work for an ISP
cemented that shift. It also exposed to him to the world of open source,
starting with FreeBSD in 1996. From there he spent a number of years in IT
doing a little bit of everything.

It's that time again to start up Geek Lunches for this year, and we've
decided to kick them off by having one in Utah County! (I have been sorely
chastised for not having more events in Utah County - and look to amend that
this year!)

 

This month's Geek Lunch is going to be at The Smokehouse Pizza and BBQ in
Orem.  

The event will be Feb 20 at 12:30p.
