Java MeetUp Mpls or referred to on Twitter with the hashtag #jmu612 was another success. On a nice Spring morning, around 50 people attended the April event dealing with the topic of Apps. What were people’s favorite Apps? Why did they like them and how did they help them in their work or home life? These questions would be answered in this session.
Some of the people who presented their favorite Apps were @CleverKate, @JasonDouglas, @dena33, @MarketingMama, @fabuliss, @IDS07 and @amandaingle.
