O'Reilly News January

JavaScript is everywhere today. It's become an important and full-fledged development language, and we've created a new conference to give JavaScript developers an event of their own. The O'Reilly Fluent Conference explores JavaScript and beyond May 29-31, 2012 in San Francisco, CA. Submit your call for participation by January 31.

Get your electronic copy of the 2012 issue of Mashed Code Magazine. Three formats of this community-organized and published magazine are downloadable for free online.

Join our Online Strata Conference January 25. We'll be discussing the following topics: Pretty Simple Data Privacy, Towards a Quantified Society, Analytics from 330 Million Smartphones, and Crafting Meaningful Data Experiences.

Next time you log onto Google+, be sure to add O'Reilly to your circles and we'll add you to ours.

Thanks,

----Marsee Henon and Jon Johns
