Last October 23th and 24th some coworkers, teachers and...

Like in the...

A community challenge for you Liferay's worldwide conferences generate quite a bit of data, and I am challenging the community: Take this data, and do something more interesting than a boring list of speakers and rooms. Get creative with the data (it's super-easy to digest, see the example code from my first post). Have some fun and show us how creative you can get! What's In...
