Don’t miss your chance to attend our Ajax workshop in Brighton on Friday, March 2nd, 2007.
Through a series of lectures and practical examples you will learn the power of the XMLHttpRequest object and how it can be used to add advanced interactivity to your website. Using the Hijax concept, you will learn how to create highly flexible applications using the principle of progressive enhancement.
Places are limited to just 18 people to keep the workshop nice and intimate.
We realise that many people weren't able to secure tickets for d.Cosntruct06, so we podcast the whole event for your enjoyment and edification. The first couple of sessions are now online and you can grab the feed from our podcast section. Alternatively you can download the individual mp3s along with the speaker notes from the schedule page.
We hope you enjoy the sessions and look forward to seeing you there next year.
So d.Construct 2006 is officially over, and what a fantastic event it was. We had some amazing speakers talking about a range of fascinating subjects. We had a room full of passionate developers posting their pictures to Flickr, blogging the event and generally having a good time.
Sunny Brighton was on top form and lunch saw everything from fish and chips on the pier to a microformats picnic in the Pavilion Gardens. There were prizes galore, including stacks of books from FriendsofED, tickets to SXSWi and a Video iPod courtesy of Yahoo! Answers. A fantastic goodie bag complete with a t-shirt, copy of .Net and Yahoo! branded water meant nobody went away empty handed.
To top it all off we had a couple of memorable parties that went late into the night and even a crazy golf tournament. What more could you ask for?
Of course the conference wasn't without its hiccups, including slightly cramped seats and patchy WiFi in the morning. However that all helped add to the grassroots charm.
We'll be adding links to all the presentations as we get them, and we'll be releasing each session as a podcast over the coming weeks.
Overall we had a fantastic time at d.Construct and hope you did too. We'd like to thank all the speakers, sponsors and volunteers for making the conference possible. Most importantly, we'd like to thank you for making d.Construct 2006 such a memorable event.
We look forward to seeing you at d.Construct 2007.
