Dropbox is coming to Waterloo tomorrow: Tech Talk and Info Session - Wednesday, Jan 22nd at 5pm
by Sean Lynch 22 Jan '13

22 Jan '13

We're headed to Waterloo for our first ever recruiting trip to Canada. Come by and learn more about how we build software at Dropbox. We'll supply the food, drinks, and giveaways. Wednesday, Jan 22nd 5-7pm, Davis Center 1304 (Optional) RSVP for the talk on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/events/525072800859633/ About the presentation: Ever since Dropbox has launched, it has had deep integration with Finder, Apple’s file manager (found in Mac OS X). What most people don’t know is that Apple doesn’t actually provide any endpoints for third-parties to integrate with. In this talk, we’ll explain the low-level binary code injection techniques we used on Mac OS X to get the Finder to include Dropbox in the toolbar, sidebar, context menu, and over each file icon. About Dropbox: Dropbox was founded in 2007 by Drew Houston and Arash Ferdowsi, two MIT students tired of emailing files to themselves to work from more than one computer. Today, more than 100 million people across every continent use Dropbox to always have their stuff at hand, share with family and friends, and work on team projects.

Computer Science Club Members! Please join us for this event next Tuesday! [http://www.bazaarvoice.com/files/images/products/conversations_infographic_…] Who are we? Bazaarvoice is now the reigning powerhouse in aggregating and enabling online consumer product reviews that take place outside the walled gardens of Internet giants like Amazon and eBay and Facebook. So if you review a product that you purchased from Best Buy or Target or Radio Shack or Staples, you are likely doing so via a cloud-based software architecture provided by Bazaarvoice. A few weeks after purchasing that product, you may have also received and filled out a survey via email asking you to rate your purchase according to various criteria. That, too, is managed by Bazaarvoice. Your word of mouth has been monetized. Your authenticity has been captured. Join us! Come and meet us! We will be at the Bomb Shelter hosting an info session at 7pm on Tuesday, Jan 22nd. Hear about the edgy things our software engineers are working on. Learn about life in the fabulous city of Austin, Texas! $100.00 door prize will be raffled at the end of the evening (bring your resume to enter!). **RSVP via Jobmine [Description: Description: C:\Users\kathy.smithwillman\Desktop\BV_Primary_FullColor_TM_RGB_v2.jpg] Elizabeth G.
