Google Tech Talk With Alon Halevy; Wednesday 1/11, 6:05pm – 7:15pm; EE125
How do we make data management tools collaborative and much easier to use, and to leverage the incredible collections of structured data on the Web? Alon’s is the creator of Google Fusion Tables, a service for managing data in the cloud that focuses on ease of use, collaboration and data integration. Fusion Tables enables users to upload spreadsheets, CSV and KML files and share them with collaborators or with the public. You can easily integrate data from multiple sources (and organizations) and use a collection of visualizations to look at your data.
Internship Panel; Thursday 1/12, 5:30pm – 6:30pm; EEB 125
The internship panel consists of recent CSE grads from Amazon, Zillow, Google and Microsoft who will provide the insight CSE undergraduates need to secure the best-fitting internships, prepare for those internships, and know what to expect once they get there. Students are encouraged to bring their internship questions for the panel.
Smoothie Day!; Friday 1/13, 4:30pm – 5:30pm; Atrium
Come drink free smoothies and hang out with your friends this Friday.

I finally got a relevant Facebook advertisement!
CodeSprint is a coding contest designed to streamline the job hunt for programmers. Instead of applying to 65 companies individually, work your noggin on a single set of interesting and tough coding challenges in a 48 hour period to get interview calls from these awesome companies!
Unlike the first CodeSprint, CodeSprint 2 will be open to everyone.

Subject: [cs-ugrads] poster session – final project presentations for CSE 440, Introduction to HCI
To: dub <dub@dub.washington.edu>, cs-ugrads@cs.washington.edu
Cc: cse440a_au11@uw.eduWe are having a poster session in the Microsoft Atrium in the Paul Allen Center (the CSE building) for the final projects for CSE 440, Introduction to HCI, Thursday Dec 15, 10:30-12:20. There are some really interesting projects – come check them out! For example, we’ve got a controller for domestic robots (pick up your kid’s mess …), a Husky Crime Guide (how to avoid being a victim, not how to commit them), motivating public school students to attend (particularly at-risk ones), and 6 others. There will also be refreshments. Links to the project websites are up at

cheers,

Hey everyone, research night is this Wednesday. The event will start with an open panel of current or former undergraduate researchers to tell you about their experiences. This will be followed by a poster session in the atrium where grad students will be showing off their projects that you could potentially work on.
P.S. We still need more panelists for the event, please reply if you are interested.

Hey everyone, we’re holding research night next Wednesday 11/30 at 4:30pm or 5pm and we need about 5 undergrads with research experience to talk and field questions for other undergrads who are potentially interested in doing research.
If you’re interested in helping out, please reply. We’ll need you for about 30 minutes during the actual event.

Hey everybody!
Fall fest is in a couple hours! It starts at 6pm tonight in the atrium. Since it is your party, people should bring Wii and Xbox 360 games that they want to play. Label your game cases with your name to make sure they don’t get lost.

Hey everyone!
ACM-W loves froyo, and we’ve heard that you do, too! Celebrate the end of the week with us at Yogurtland, the new, super-cheap froyo place on the Ave. If you’ve been before, you know how awesome it is; if you haven’t, I’ll just say that they have tons of awesome froyo flavors and amazing choose-your-own toppings.
Meet us in the Atrium by Reboot at 3:30pm on Friday, or meet us at Yogurtland at 3:45! Guys are welcome too; as long as you love froyo, we’d love to have you =)
