from barcamp bangalore

April 22, 2006 Saj Leave a comment

I am blogging from Yahoo! campus in Bangalore. Morning sessions just started at 10.00AM IST. The total turn around is almost 150+ . First sessions were Mobile computing and Art of Scrum. Right now I am waiting for the voice over xml session to start at 10.30Am.

One best thing about BC bangalore is we have a global crowd here , there are people came all the way from USA just to attend the barcamp.

I will talk more about each session later… ;-)

Ajax – Road Ahead

April 10, 2006 Saj 2 comments

Over the last year, Ajax as a technology enjoyed a historic year in-terms of usage and glory. Ever since Adaptive Path published the article about Ajax written by Jesse James Garrett, most of us might have seen the way Ajax grown up as a technology. Today a search for  "Ajax Framework" in Google list more than 200000 links. As an Ajax programmer, I feel glad about it. But are we missing something here?

Everyone is busy developing their own Ajax framework for their web2.0 applications. And everyone is struggling with the cross browser JS issues that can spoil your hours and even days of efforts. Isn't this the right time to give a little thought about this? How about developing an Ajax framework that can submit for the approval of W3C and which can be easily integrate with any platform and technology. A framework that works just fine across the browsers as expected.

I may sound like crazy, but just imagine having a common piece of Ajax and that just works fine across the browsers. Imagine you are getting more and more time to do wonderful stuff using a solid ajax framework. Sigh! I hope one day Ajax – I – NATION happens ;-)

Meanwhile if you know any JS debugger for IE let me know :)
