I am happy to see others had the same realisation I had after watching Brandon Satrom’s presentation.
This past week I had the pleasure - and it was a pleasure - to visit the fine city of Sandusky, Ohio. Now up until this point, all I’ve known about Sandusky is this…
We were at the Kalahari Resort for CodeMash. This is a fabulous place by the way. Not only is it a fantastic indoor water…
One of the best take aways from this years’ Web2.0Expo/NY for me was the introduction to CoffeeScript. This was done during The New Startup Stack workshop by Trevor Burnham. Which he runs us into a quick overview of CoffeeScript, Node.js and MongoDB.
If you have an understanding of JavaScript and has not seen CoffeeScript yet, it will behoove you to watch this video by Bodil Stokke. By the end of the video you’ll want to run through Trevor’s slides and set your environment up to run Nodelicious.
I truly believe CoffeeScript is the future of JavaScript, and I don’t seem to be the only one.

Avectra, the company I work for, sent the AvectraLabs crew to Web2.0Expo in New York. We had the privilege of attending the workshops on Monday, and the conference which runs through Thursday. So far I have learned quite a lot and became excited about many of these tools and processes presented by the plethora of speakers here. I plan on writing a summary about the presentations and workshops I’ve attended. Presentations that include CoffeScript, Node.JS, Flickr’s PuSH API, Redis, and much more.
One of the best presentations was given by Chad Dickerson, CEO of Etsy and the culture of Etsy. Where I learned about Deployinator, and the whole mentality of Code as Craft.
I’ll write up a better post summarising the presentations I attended and what I’ve learned.
I would like to thank Avectra,Inc. for allowing me to experience all of this pure awesomeness.
