While at the Adobe MAX judging pow-wow this week, I pulled fellow judge Andre Charland (of Nitobi) aside to see what was going on his neck of the RIA woods.
We start out discussing the Ajax conference scene where there seems to be a division between tech-focused conference and business-focused conferences. Then we discuss PhoneGap: an iPhone App framework for writing native iPhone apps with JavaScript and HTML, that is, Ajax. As Andre says, they’re working on Blackberry and Android versions as well.
On that note, I ask Andre what he thinks about Google Android’s future. As we both say, we’d lust after something as great as the iPhone that was more open. We spend sometime bemoaning the non-open nature of the iPhone when it comes to app selection.
Andre rounds out by commenting on Microsoft’s addition of jQuery in Visual Studio.
And, keep your eyes peeled for a short video I did with Andre on Nitobi.
(We recorded on a tarrace at Adobe HQ, so you can hear the street in the background and planes from time to time: how nice is it be outside, though?)
Disclosure: Adobe and Microsoft are clients.
