Nitrogen at the Erlang Factory across the Pond
Monday, June 1, 2009 at 11:06PM | Permalink Have had too much to write about lately, and not enough time to write it.
In less than a month I'll be heading out to London to speak about Nitrogen at the Erlang Factory. I've booked a little extra time before and after the trip to go sip some tea, see Big Ben, high five the Queen, and ride in a London cab.
In the meantime, Nitrogen is undergoing some big changes. The improvements were inspired by conversations and presentations at Erlang Factory San Francisco as well as Growing a Language by Guy Steele.
The main goals are to:
- Allow Nitrogen to cooperate with--rather than compete against--some of the other great work out there, including Webmachine, Erlang Web, ErlyWeb, etc.
- Make it easier for the Nitrogen community to customize caching, sessions, state management, and many of the other things that get more complicated as a site grows.
Early prototypes are looking good. Hopefully I'll have some great stuff to show off by the time the 'Factory starts.

It was a good talk, using the coolest presentation software at the factory, what was that?
Great talk, I second the question "what was the presentation software you were using?"
Thanks! I used Prezi to create the presentation. Interesting software, but requires much more upfront planning than a plain old slide deck.
