Presentation: "SocketStream - a new framework for a new web"
Time:
Wednesday 13:30 - 14:20
Location:
Bayview
Abstract:
SocketStream
is a new Node.js framework which tears up the old rules of the past and ask the
question: "What immersive, new experiences can we create if we send all
the data your application needs over the Websocket?". We'll look at
some of the challenges to this approach, and how SocketStream helps by
organizing large amounts of client code, integrating with popular third-party
client-side frameworks (Angular, Ember, Backbone, etc), and multiplexing
disparate streams of data over the websocket.

Owen Barnes, Creator of SocketStream
Owen
Barnes has been building web apps since the mid nineties and sees 'Realtime' as
the third major phase of the web (Static -> Dynamic -> Realtime). After
spending several years building Ruby on Rails apps for the world's largest
online advertising company (Advertising.com
/ AOL), Owen now focusses exclusively on creating rich, immersive experiences
using Node.js and the SocketStream web framework he created. In addition to the
realtime web, he is passionate about other emerging technologies (such as 3D
printing & proximity mobile), harnessing the power of the mind, and making
music.
