Welcome
Hi there,
The holidays are moving in quickly and soon 2009 will be over. Is your group
celebrating with a holiday party? Make sure we send books for your raffle.
One book that should be on every group's list or library is Scott Berkun's
lastest book Confessions of a Public
Speaker<http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zuejfij5me50u97fudh4lo9g3etsttgakb9vu2a0>that
just released this month. This book is funny as well as practical. One
UG leader told me he read it to his wife. Now how's that for an endorsement?
Last month I visited the Atlanta area to attend a gathering of user group
leaders of all kinds. We had a great turn out and spent the day discussing
topics such as community, membership, meeting structure, sponsorship, and
more. Please check out the notes on the group
wiki<http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z5b3nuut4h88s2qf1se2bvtrr0qa9ssctecb92j8>when
you have a chance.
User group leaders are invited to join the West Coast Community Leadership
Summit coming up January 9 at DeVry University in Daly City. Registration is
open<http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z0tf3dpfrsm2g78deie26g73q5nfq8djjlc4pn3o>.
Thanks to Michael Van
Riper<http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z777vciift5her6v7j7relnq21i9ki3qacremqlo>for
getting the ball rolling. The evening activity will be an Ignite at
Google in San Francisco. Read on for more
details<http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zr9o8kvob3ob5fd14bnv7rejvqsfc45p5lluuuv8>.
Please pass along any part of this newsletter to your group via email or
your website and include the discount codes. We offer both a text and an
HTML version.
Thanks,
--Marsee Henon

O'Reilly Answers -- Clever Hacks. Creative Ideas. Innovative Solutions.
We're launching the beta of O'Reilly
Answers<http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zd8451d0ncdo0n53psed3c7cb8jlnm0hnaci8si0>,
and I'm inviting you to be part of it. In brief, O'Reilly Answers is a
community site for sharing knowledge, asking questions, and providing
answers that brings together our customers, authors, editors, conference
speakers, and Foo (Friends of O'Reilly). O'Reilly is at the center of an
amazing exchange of knowledge sharing and idea generation, and we want you
to join us in changing the world by spreading the knowledge of innovators.

Great Java on Video
If you're learning something new, doesn't it make sense to learn how to do
it *well*? Great learning from O'Reilly helps you do just that: from start
to finish, we teach you tried and true methods for every topic we cover,
from Java programming to HTML coding, and more. And, rather than just
sitting and watching, you learn by *doing*, in real time. It's as if you're
sitting next to a good friend (and programming expert) as he shares what he
knows and you follow along, step-by-step. It's simply a great way to learn.
Throughout the course, you'll progressively learn to code and compile
programs, work extensively with text, and declare, convert, and cast between
data types. You'll also read files, get user input, and build arrays,
including multi-dimensional arrays. Finally, you'll move into objects,
modeling your data and behavior into core Java structures.
Great Java: Level
1<http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zv5gnmbh4bu46ccumf3mak7vrs971smi7oq8h8e0>will
teach you the fundamentals of Java, from the basics of compilation
through methods, objects, and the key concepts of good programming. By the
time you're through these lessons, you'll be programming, and programming
well.
