WPLUG will hold a general user meeting on Saturday, February 9, 2013 at the Wilkins School Community Center in Swissvale, PA. You don't need to be a member of WPLUG to come to our meetings, and there is no cost to attend.

After our "business meeting," which typically doesn't take more than half an hour, we'll open the floor to presentations, discussions, and generally just hanging out. If you're interested in having fun with other Linux and open source enthusiasts in the area, we invite you to stop by!

Topic: The Rise and Fall of the WebOS Mobile Operating System

"In the span of just three years, webOS went from being a media darling to a running gag. What happened? How did it end up contributing to Android's development? I'll also be giving a hands-on demonstration of Open WebOS, the most current iteration of webOS, since I own one of the three Android devices that is capable of running it."
