The majority of NoSQL meetups in London are hosted on meetup.com and luckily for us meetup.com has an API that allows us to extract all the corresponding data - groups, events, venues, members and RSVPs.
In this talk Mark will show how we can use R to gain quick insights into the data using tools like dplyr and ggplot2. We'll also do some social network analysis of the attendees of London's meetup scene using igraph.
Finally we'll look at how we could bring together all these insights into a brand new Clojure front end for the meetup website.
