Mix 2010


So, I was lucky enough to go to Mix this week and it was awesome. Vegas was beautiful, the casinos were great, and I got to hear some really cool talks. I was surprised, I expected things to be very designer focused but it wasn't. You have to think, though, how many Windows designers do you know? I don't know any. I think design degrees come with a Mac Book and some granola.  



Douglas Crawford of JSON fame made a special appearance. It was cool to see him speak and even cooler to be sitting in on the same sessions as he was. He had some interesting stuff to say about aging out browsers and Java Script the good/bad. 


There were some cool dynamic language talks, a great "ask the experts" dinner, and many other Java Script sessions I really enjoyed. They have all the videos online and I recommend the following:



Six Things Every JQuery Developer Should Know - Elijah Manor\


How JQuery Makes Hard Things Simple - John Resig



The Tale of Java Script, I mean ECMAScript - Douglas Crawford


The Mono Project - Miguel DeIcaza


Reactive Extentions for Java Script - Eric Meijer


ASP.NET Security - Hanselman and Haack



Check those out and there are dozens more I didn't see that I hope to check out. I leave you with this picture of me and some Microsoft/Mono folk at the awesome attendee party at LAX in the Luxor. 


Happy Developing!

  22. I often dream of that clueless closet app as well. (My first Java applet was a dress-up game.) I think it'd make a good mobile app - take pics of your clothes or draw them, catalog them, remember your favorite outfits. Bonus if it super-imposes them on you and tweets them out for ratings.
