Trulia at Web 2.0 Expo
This year’s Web 2.0 Expo was this week in beautiful San Francisco, and yours Truli(a) gave a workshop on Sunday, April 15th.
It was a good crowd of 200 developers and assorted other techies. We talked about designing and building modern Web applications, with lots of hands-on examples drawn from Trulia, music site lala.com and even Safeway.com.
There is no shortage of ideas in the Web 2.0 world; it seems as though everyone is trying to solve problems in new and creative ways. More and more companies want to take advantage of these good ideas by making APIs available for developer-strangers to build upon (see Trulia API now open to the world!). So what is the biggest impediment to building rich Internet applications? It’s (unfortunately not that) simple: the implementation of these ideas.
You can download the presentation slides from Trulia’s alpha labs page.
