We are also considering ordering in some Pizzas. Anyone wanting Pizza would need to chip in some $$$. If you are interested please let us know so we can organise this before hand. Just send a mail to the google mail group or post a reply on facebook.
Should be a good night. Hope to see you all there.

Something I left out:
With NPM, there is a "global" mode and a "local" mode. Command-line packages (like JSLint, LESS, etc) should be installed globally (and you should add the Node.JS directory to your PATH environment variable for convenience). Packages that are required for your project should be installed locally, after changing to your project directory.
I just had a quick look under the bonnet, and Trello (http://trello.com/) uses WebSockets via Socket.IO, just like my demonstration.
ReplyDeleteTrello is an amazing demonstration of the sort of thing you can build with WebSockets, especially as it isn't the typical chat-room example.
