The DNN Show & Tell Meetup

Get ready for the monthly DNN Online Demo Party! Recorded live, this fun session focuses on short practical demonstrations of anything DNN-related.

When: First Tuesday of each month
Time: 6:30 PM Eastern Time
Where: Online (Register below!)

Your Hosts: Steve Karpik, Marco Alvarado, and Jeremy Farrance

What You Need to Know

No demo? No problem! You don't need to bring a presentation to join the fun.
Want the spotlight? If you have a demo you'd like to screen-share, let us know and we can schedule it, or just wait for the "open mic" and volunteer!
Come Ready: Bring your questions, your curiosity, and maybe a joke or two.
After the demos, recording stops, and its a "hang-out." Join us for a casual discussion about anything DNN related (and sometimes other things).

As of this morning (Mon, 5/11), all the videos from last week's meetup are live now on YouTube. You can watch either the whole things, or the 4 demos are posted separately ranging from 9 to 19 minutes (they usually include the demo as well as the Q&A afterwards).
