About Me

I am a JavaScript application developer and consultant,
working to help clients write client-side applications that treat
JavaScript as a rich and powerful language, not a toy. I'm the
co-host of the rollicking yayQuery podcast, the organizer of the unexpectedly epic TXJS, a contributor to the jQuery Cookbook from O'Reilly, and the author of jQuery Fundamentals. I'm also active in trying to get more women to participate in the tech community, even if it means I have to get up on stage myself. I live in Durham, North Carolina, with my partner, two dogs, and two terrible cats.

TXJS: JS + BBQ + You

Posted

If you follow me on Twitter, you've heard about TXJS by now, but let me tell you: now that we've announced Douglas Crockford and John Resig, there is officially no way you should miss this. TXJS is a full-day conference set for June 5 in Austin, Texas, hosted by the yayQuery team and featuring BBQ and a slew of awesome JavaScripters:

  • Douglas Crockford, JavaScript architect at Yahoo! and author of "JavaScript: The Good Parts"
  • Andrew Dupont, Prototype core team member

  • Paul Irish, jQuery team member and yayQuery podcast co-host
  • Brian LeRoux, software architect at Nitobi and PhoneGap hacker/contributor

If you want to see about 40 videos from txjs just go to google, youtube, blip.tv or itunes and do a search for the two keywords "springnet" and "txjs"
