[boston] Fwd: Last Chance NEJUG registration reminder: JavaScript Beyond the Basics

[Steven Boscarine]

Most of you guys are probably on the NEJUG list and already got this 
message.  There is a  JavaScript NEJUG meeting tomorrow.


I've personally registered, but may balk if the weather is too hairy or 
I get a bad case of the lazies.


I'm more of a "back-end" guy, but I guess it's always good to know your 
way around the front (of the stack!).


BTW, if you missed it, Bill Burke gave a great presentation on REST and 
RESTEasy last night.  Good job, Bill!

One warning, if Jesper says "feet," he really means meters :)  However, 
everyone I talked to had fun at the bar last night....a very successful 
inaugural meeting.  Can't wait for the next one.

*THE MAIN EVENT:*

Presentation Overview:

JavaScript is one of the most widely used languages around and yet its 
also one of the most misunderstood. With Ajaxified UIs becoming the 
norm, this humble language is once again at the forefront. In this talk, 
we'll go beyond the basics of JavaScript delving into the mysteries of 
prototype inheritance, objects, language edge cases and the importance 
of testing.

About our speaker:

Nathaniel T. Schutta is a senior software engineer focussed on making 
usable applications. A proponent of polyglot programming, Nate has 
written two books on Ajax and speaks regularly at various No Fluff Just 
Stuff symposia, universities, and Java user groups. In addition to his 
day job, Nate is an adjunct professor at the University of Minnesota 
where he teaches students to embrace dynamic languages.



Look forward to seeing you this Thursday.
