• There are three tracks: Administration & Infrastructure, Development and "I Don't Know Where This Fits".  These run concurrently and for the most part each track stays in the same room
• Some sponsors have their own spotlight session during a small portion of the lunch Monday and Tuesday.  Make sure you visit them to see full demos, ask tons of questions and thank them for helping make IamLUG a success
• NerdGirls will have a gathering as well, see the agenda for the Monday time

This session will provide examples of the value of social software using 7 drawings (and examples) of "business pains" submitted by customers. This session will help attendees who are in early development of their social software strategy...as well as those who have experience in implementing social software but are looking for more uses. The goal is for everyone to leave with at least one new approach for using social software to provide real business value.

Domino is full of ways to help you identify potential problems and possible pitfalls. Find out why these early reporting tools like DDM, server analysis tools like DCT, and a healthy dose of pro-active management and calm planning can help you get control of your servers and return them to full health.

You’ve heard buzzwords like single-sign on, single userid, or authentication management, but also heard that they were a nightmare to implement.  Or perhaps you always wanted to use another directory - like Active Directory for your Sametime, Web, IMAP or Traveler password authentication but thought it required a 3rd party tool or something installed on the Domino server?  In this session we'll show you how to configure your Domino server to authenticate with either the HTTP Password or the LDAP directory password without a server reboot!  We'll extend that idea to demonstrate how with a little bit of magic and a sprinkling of Tivoli Directory Integrator you can get closer to that simple single userid or directory system you’ve always wanted.

Notes and Domino applications are all too often constructed with every bell and whistle imaginable -- both because they are there for us to use, and to show off our development prowess. In this session, we'll bring role-appropriate minimalism to the table by introducing one application that fits the way several people work. With more than twelve demos illustrating the programming and development concepts, this session is guaranteed to give you great ideas about how to make your Notes and Domino applications shine! If you follow our advice, your applications will start to work for your users at just the right level of complexity - instead of the other way around!

Come meet other Nerd Girls for some lively conversation! Not a Nerd Girl already? We'll share Twitter IDs, Skype names, and introduce you to our Linked In group and Twitter list.

This session will begin by looking at current hurdles for getting existing applications mobilized. What currently works, what doesn't work and why. Then, using XPages, we will mobilize an application in 30 minutes and show it running on a Blackberry and iPhone. Finally we will deploy the application on Teamstudio Unplugged, a Notes client for Blackberry showing advantages of using apps stored on the device and less reliance on the data network

What is Lotus doing with Linux today? These are exciting times in the Lotus space and Linux is a key facet of their software strategy. Let's look at all of their products supporting Linux, issues with running in production, and how business solutions using this NOS can create business saves. In this session we will discuss how Lotus is fully embracing Linux as a Domino and Notes platform. With all of the new and enhanced Notes-related products offered, keeping track of what product is available and realistic to run in your firm, can be challenging. And sometimes knowing how to install each Linux-variant product can add additional complexity. Join Bill to cover all of the products and provide some install and usage tips on each, maximizing your experience. We may even have unusually terrific Linux swag to dispense too

Find your users by location -- on the client, on the web, or on the phone. Do lookups based on GPS, IP address, and even WiFi hotspot. Map it, track it, put it on a graph. Interact with other location-based services to let people know what's going on around them. And how the heck does Google always know where I am, anyway?

In this session we're going to take a close look at Sametime 8.5 - you've heard about it but do you need it and if you do how do you deploy it? We'll start right in and take a look at the new Meeting Center and Proxy Server in detail and then look at each of the server components talking about what each one does and how they link together. Finally I'll show you some infrastructure options and some limitations of the current 8.5 release you really need to know about. . This session is going to move fast and cover a lot of ground but hopefully by the time we're done you'll have a lot better idea of what you need and how you're going to get there.

With jQuery, you will make AJAX something more than a 4 letter word, easily turn ugly forms into beauty queens, make validation as easy as 1-2-3, and even make you proud to show off your calendar views.

Want to rapidly integrate an existing application and create a "dashboard" view of it in the sidebar? This session will put you on the fast track for plug-in and composite development development and with skills and tools to get up and running. We'll explore how partners are building their plugins and how your can leverage open source assets to jumpstart your development.
