Tuesday night's Saccfug meeting

February 14, 2008

Thanks to everyone that came to the Saccfug meeting Tuesday night! My "Intermediate Uses of CFCs" preso seemed to go over quite well! Admittedly I was worried about it; some work chaos happened and I had to make an unexpected trip out of town for the 6 days prior, coming home only a few hours before the meeting began, so things weren't as dialed as I would have liked, but all the feedback I received was very positive. I suppose I am indeed my own worst critic. :) Some folks were asking for the code samples. You can get a ZIP of the source code here, and the slides are available here. I'll set up a more proper section for all the presentations I've done shortly. Hopefully for now this will suffice. Whenever I do a presentation on a more "introductory" topic like this, we seem to have a really good amount of people show up. I think there are a lot of programmers out there that aren't quiet ready to use frameworks (or other complex OO ideas), but they do want to learn. Offering presentations to help bridge the gap seems to be of great interest (at least around Sacramento). Thanks again!
