Hi Folks, thanks to all those that came to our September event. For those that could not make it, John delivered a talk that first introduced the basics and then walked seamlessly through ever increasing degrees of power up to 'I dont know why you'd want to do this.. but you can' (o; John has put the content up here http://ejohn.org/blog/adv-javascript-and-processingjs/
Since the presentation I've read yet more articles declaring jQuery as the defacto js library of choice. Thats not to say libraries such as http://mootools.net/ or http://extjs.com/ should not be considered, and jQuery's terseness takes a little getting used to. However, the community which has put its weight behind this particular 'tool' makes it a safe bet to invest some learning in. I hope to see some of you at the jQuery Conference on Sunday (sold out) and maybe next year, if John has time, we'll repeat this event with whatever amazing extensions come out in that time. I'd also like to thank Steve Pomeroy for organising the room at MIT as well as all those that have helped us put on events this year. We're going to take a break for the rest of '08 and we'll see you in '09 with more discussions, workshops & social events for those working in the field of Interaction Design.
