What
I will be hosting an event on the design and development of Wherigo
cartridges.
This event will be hosted at the local business of New Horizons
Computer Learning Center who have so graciously allowed access to
one of them rooms stocked with computers including everything that
we will need in order to create a working Wherigo cartridge. My
hope for you is to have you walk away with a functional and working
cartridge that you can get published.
I will have coordinates available for use to test cartridges in
the parking lot. You cartridge's coordinates can then be easily
modified for the location that you choose.
When
The scheduled date will be May 22nd, 2010.
Who
Everyone who has had some interest in learning how to develop a
Wherigo cartridge is recommended to attend this event. I will cover
cartridge design and development including tips, tricks, and
bugs.
I have spoken with Groundspeak regarding hosting a Wherigo
related event on several occasions now. Groundspeak has mentioned
that they may be able to send some swag items. We will see where
that goes.
