We welcome Pinterest's own Kent Brewster as our keynote speaker!

Hacker, writer, speaker, dad. Not necessarily in that order. Kent built the front end for Netflix's iPhone app from scratch, using nothing but HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Netflix's open APIs.

His favorite topics: securing Web 2.0 sites; JavaScript badges; front-end design & performance; creating and exploiting APIs; Yahoo! Pipes & YQL; OAuth; why having an API is a good idea in the first place.

This is a joint meetup with the Facebook Developers Meetup - which we've allowed an additional 50 RSVPs (all taken).

Learn about new startup tools available to make your pinning experience easy and how to measure it.

We'll focus on support to manage multiple boards and on tools that help measure effectiveness of your Pinboards for your brands for starters.

Demos:

1. Pintics: Founders Francisco Guerrero and Liang

Pintics helps you understand the traffic sources for your pinboards.

Pintics - Tools and Analytics for your Pinterest account

2. Rummage - http://rumma.ge

Rummage is a fast, fun, visual way to browse eBay.

At its core is a search tool that modernizes the eBay shopping experience by emphasizing quick access to large photos, an intuitive UI, and serendipitous discovery. It is designed to conjure up the excitement felt at a rummage sale: that moment when you find something wonderful that you’ve wanted forever.
