In addition to my slides, Andre recorded my CommunityOne presentation and put it on Blip. Check it out!

CommunityOne and RedMonk

Dave Johnson — Wed, 07 May 2008 08:03:32 +0000

So far so good.

My talk at CommunityOne went off without a hitch and was possibly even well received. After which Andre and I went on to check out the RedMonk track at CommunityOne, which was inciteful as one would expect. We participated in a few discussions around cloud computing, twitter and, of course, RIA. I think from the discussion about RIAs I pretty much decided the only thing that makes an RIA is when an online application does not use page refreshes (too much). Flash, Silverlight and Ajax all share this one common thread. It was a good time and got even better at the house of shields after (between which was dinner with Dion, Ben, Chet, James and Andre).

At any rate, there have been lots of good conversations with all sorts of different people and the creative juices are flowing. Can’t wait to find time to get some code written

Tomorrow is the Anchor Steam tour that Mike Chambers has organized – needless to say I can’t wait!

CommunityOne Presentation

So I have been accepted to give a presentation at CommunityOne, which occurs the day before JavaOne on May 5. I am going to talk about JavaScript + DOM patterns. I was going to focus on the JavaScript and DOM details around some common Ajax patterns such as those covered conceptually by Michael and Bill. Any ideas would be more than welcome!

Andre and I are also going to take part in the RedMonk CommunityOne festivities as much as possible as well which should certainly be a blast.

This is a bit of a digression but what a sweet picture. Ryan looks badass and Cote is all choked up!

CommunityOne Speaking

UPDATE: Oh yah and hopefully we will be hanging out at the Redmonk unconference the rest of the time as Andre mentions below.

Looks like I am going to be speaking at CommunityOne again this year which is immediately before JavaOne down in San Fran.

I spoke at both last year but to tell you the truth I thought that the audience was much better (and bigger) at the CommunityOne presentation. Hopefully it will be good again this year.

Last year I presented on Ajax testing and debugging while this year I am going to talk about something more JavaScripty in DOM design patterns. I am going to write a blog post shortly about the idea and try to get some feedback from everyone.

CommunityOne Slides: Ajax to the Moon

Here is the presentation that I gave at CommunityOne down at JavaOne entitled Ajax to the Moon.

Take a look at the PDF and I will try and get the slides up with slideshare though it doesn’t seem to be working quite right at the moment.

Update: Here are the real slides!
