Devnest is a developer oriented community meetup organised by @nuxnix and @markabaker. We meet on Tuesdays almost monthly usually at The Guardian's offices in London with beer and pizza kindly sponsored by Amazon Web Services. Our content is best suited to people who are already developing applications for real-time social information networks like Twitter or who intend to start building a social media or Twitter-related application in the future. We don't pay people to speak, or for administration and our open mike 140 second presentations have become part of the social media developer/start-up calendar in London and the south east. Twitter Corp. support us with live video Q&A from their API team.

Quite a few of our community are LAMP-oriented and active participants in PHP events, and we are delighted to be able to participate in this way. PHP UK Conference attendees are very welcome at our next Devnest - Twitter Tuesday on 1st March 2011 at The Guardian in London. Free tickets available at http://devnest.eventbrite.com

FDGL is a non-profit community group founded in 2007 to promote knowledge sharing and networking within the growing Facebook application development community in London and the UK. It runs around 10 events per year, organised on Facebook itself, attended by entrepreneurs, recruiters, technology journalists and of course developers, each with a schedule of short 5 to 15 minute 'tapas' talks lasting up to 2 hours in total, covering various subjects including the Facebook development, application, marketing and advertising platforms, and the wider world of social media and the Internet.

Facebook staff have been actively involved in helping to organise the events, joining a committee of volunteers. Find and follow FDGL on Facebook, Twitter and on their own website, which includes video recordings of the hundreds of talks and reports of the events that they've hosted so far, job offers and more.

If you're a web developer or designer then this meet-up is for you! We have collected some of the best brains in the industry (well, in London) to talk about what we love the most: the web. We have a wide range of people from designers, HTML/CSS gurus, Flash, Flex, .Net, PHP and Ruby developers. There is a lot of talent in London, and everyone's open to sharing something new.

You should find the topics quite varied but relevant to the web. Expect to learn about new tools and techniques that can help you in your everyday or work (or just enlighten you). The meetup is on the 3rd Thursday, every month at 7.30pm. We are currently meeting in the Tottenham Court Road area. Sign up for details and we'll see you there!

We have a free video podcast available on iTunes - subscribe to it to make sure you get each talk as it's released - just search for London Web.
