At the end of June myself and Robyn Tippins, the community manager for YDN, were out at ConvergeSC in South Carolina. There were a lot of great talks during this time and all have just been published to http://vimeo.com/convergesc/videos. I would recommend going through the entire gambit because there were some very impressive speakers available.
My talk was an overview of YDN technologies when used in conjunction with YQL. There was a main focus on YQL within this talk.
Robyn covered a very intriguing story about her career and life moving towards marketing herself in her life. She finished up the day with a strong, engaging presentation.
Further to my post about the YQL podcast with the folks at Unmatched Style, here is the first video in the series where we discuss YUI 3 and the new upgrades to the library.
While I was in South Carolina at the end of June for ConvergeSC, I had the pleasure of working with the folks at Unmatched Style to output a few podcasts talking about some Yahoo! technologies. This is the second podcast of the two where I go over the core features of YQL, with examples.
In July of 2009 I gave a talk at a JavaScript meetup called Bayjax. This talk covered the topic of Browser MVC using YQL and YUI as the technology backbone and went into an overview of YQL.
This year at Adobe Max, Yahoo! had a booth where we were showcasing some of our recent API’s, services, and basically anything we had to provide to the development community. While I was there for the first day of the show, I had to opportunity to sit down with Greg Wilson of Adobe for a small interview on what was coming from their corner to the community.
