Facebook Game Developer Boot Camp
===========================================================

Are you a traditional game developer looking to make the transition to social games? Are you already making social games and want to sharpen your game? Curious what all the fuss is about? The Facebook Game Developer Boot Camp at LOGIN is for you!

An estimated total of more than 200 million of the 600 million Facebook users play games on that platform every month. Social game development is exploding in the Seattle area, as evidenced by recent investments and expansion by established companies like Zynga and PopCap. There are also tremendous opportunities in the space for new development teams because of the extremely low barrier to entry and the ability to rapidly iterate on game ideas.

In this exclusive 1-day track at LOGIN, you'll learn:

* What kind of people play games on Facebook
* The basics of creating and registering an application with Facebook
* How to integrate social features into your game
* How to create an asynchronous client-server multiplayer architecture that is robust and scalable
* How to make your game go viral
* How to get users to actually give you money
* How to fine-tune your game based on metrics
* Which features work and which don't

The Facebook Game Developer Boot Camp is open to all LOGIN attendees, but space is limited to the first 200 attendees.
