I was there for the Enterprise Development speech and it was amazing. (I was the volunteer for the card trick). Has anyone got a copy of the podcast for this presentation? I have been looking for it for a couple of weeks, and have not had any luck.

P.S. the moustache is real, he moved it around (forehead, chin, laptop) during it.

Ms Herrod's talk sounds interesting. Workflow sacrificed usability for flexibility a long time ago which is why it has become such a hard sale for both Microsoft and Oracle.

I agree with Chris, there is a lack of coverage on the article for what the headings announce. A little bit more details on the subject will be welcomed.

I agree that its getting more exciting to be a webdeveloper. 10 years ago I was imagining the industry would fade away. People were even thinking large companies would take over website development for small business but all attempts have failed.

p.s. someone drew a moustache on the guy in the second picture. I certainly hope that’s drawn on, for his sake..

Can you post some more details on how to be a rock star developer? There didn’t seem to be much coverage on that in the article.

But I did take away an introduction to Railo, which I hadn’t heard of before today. I’m already running it locally and seeing what I can do with the product.
