We’re delighted to introduce you to our new HTML5 Hackathon sponsor Filepicker.io , a YCombinator backed company!
Filepicker’s goal is to enable users to live and work entirely online, independent of their devices. To realize this vision, they strive to build the best possible set of tools for web and mobile developers to work with their user’s local and online content. From import/export to conversion to storage, they pride ourselves in helping their customers make powerful applications in less time and with less headache.
The list of their customers is very wide, over 1,900 developers trust Filepicker.io!
Filepicker.io started in Fall 2011 at MIT, when the founders noticed that more and more people are using services like Dropbox and Facebook to store their files, but that those online file sources didn’t work well with mobile and web applications. Founders as developers, were frustrated by the time and effort they had to spend on these integrations, which took away from their ability to focus on core functionality that mattered to the user. Wanting to help other developers build better applications, faster, founders built up the infrastructure needed so that these developers could hook into user’s content, wherever it lives.

About Techmeetups:
TechMeetups has been setup to create a global network of Tech communities from San Francisco to Sydney. We believe that Tech communities are isolated and great things can be achieved if we connect within our cities and outside our borders. Our goal is to create a global Tech cluster of over 50 inter-connected Tech communities by 2013.
Membership to our communities is free and anyone thinking about doing their own Startup and wanting to bounce ideas off each other, meet potential partners or investors in their city or even connect with like minded individuals in other parts of the world are welcome to join our groups! TechMeetups is all about YOU so come along, join us and lets connect to form a truly global tech community!
