The Ajax Experience
This past week I got to attend The Ajax Experience conference in Boston, MA. The Ajax Experience had a West Coast venue in San Francisco, CA earlier in the year, which I also got to attend. Outside of being a Denverite in Boston during the World Series, the conference was fantastic. TechTarget does a fantastic job of running the event for both the vendors and the attendees.
Another great aspect of the event was that Zach Pinter from EffectiveUI was on hand to help out at the Adobe table. I had a pending jury duty earlier in the week, and wasn't able to get to Boston until Wednesday night. The conference started Wednesday, and Zach was there to answer questions. Not only did he answer the questions, but he also captured many of them in a report.
The Ajax Experience is kept to a small number, which for me generally equates to fewer, but far more productive conversations with community thought leaders and customers. Rey Bango and I talked extensively about his work at Ajaxian (who actually hosts the conference), jQuery and Ext. Rey then got John Resig to help me debug an XMLHttpRequest problem for the JavaScript Share API I'm working on. I also got to plot strategy with Andre Charland and Dave Johnson from Nitobi.
