The web enables us to make software that reaches and connects everyone. But the best minds of our generation are thinking about how to make people click ads. That sucks. Are we working on the right things? This talk tells the story of the Code for Tulsa brigade, and why you can use web development to make your city, our state, and maybe our world a better place.

About Luke:

I write web code and help manage web development for Mozilla Developer Network. I organize some local tech communities. Tulsa Web Devs' mission is to make Tulsa on of the greatest cities in the world for web developers. Code for Tulsa is a Code for America Brigade. I owe all my best experiences to the open-source community and try to give back. I'm also currently working on an open-source startup - codesy.io. I brew my own beer, when I have time. I also help monks brew beer at a nearby Abbey once a month. I do Sprint-distance Triathlons. I'm a fan of Liverpool Reds and Oklahoma City Thunder.
