Facebook news from across the web

The Facebook Developer Garage London committee generally reforms once a year at its annual general meetings, and is made up of a team of volunteers who wish to help run the organisation. They meet most months, a few weeks before events, to debrief on activities and plan for the future.

Todd Chaffee

Todd runs MIKAMAI UK, a social media studio building the Facebook applications and Facebook Connect web sites that are making media more social.

As a chairman of Facebook Developer Garage London, he finds speakers and organises the monthly meetings. His personal goal for FDGL is to be a part of a community where the exchange of ideas and social media best practices are warmly embraced.
