Dion and I were (again) the two Ajax-tag-alongs on the OnAIR Tour in Europe. So we had a quick chat about what Nitobi has been up to with our Ajax components.
We covered quite a range of topics:
* Usability, User Experience
* Designer/Developers and Workflow
* BlazeDS
* 2008 RIA Predictions - Ajax all the way baby!
Well kinda. Our super duper intern Andrew Lunny put this together as a side project for UBC’s Comp Sci program.
How to get a job in Computer Science - shot in Vancouver, November 2007. Everything done by Andrew Lunny and Eugene Katsov, Team Discovery Channel, except the bits we didn’t do.
It was fun to be part of it. Hopefully we can do more of these fun little side projects as a team, it was a blast!
Michael has a very deep knowledge of these patterns and keeps the listening interesting. IMHO. Can’t wait to podcast with Michael again. You can get all of Michae’s podcasts here:
DaveO gets a lesson on using AJAX (not just for cleaning) for advanced web interface usability from the brilliant and humourous lads of E-Business Applications, Andre Charland and Alexei White.
Note: This is an ‘enhanced’ podcast filled with relevant photos and links (use your viewer window in the bottom left corner of iTunes).
While playing with Elastic Path “thinking putty,” they discuss ways to optimize the user experience, pros and cons of various technologies, the EBA Grid and Combo Box products and recap a few Gnomedex conference highlights - plus have some laughs about ski culture (gapers), community building, fantasy sports and the fleece-filled recreational equipment district of Vancouver.
Andre Charland, Dave Johnson and Alexei White of eBusiness Applications are joined by Michael Mahemoff of AjaxPatterns.org. In this Episode we discsuss building Ajax to last, offline Ajax, declarative markup and the Open AJAX Alliance.
