JSConf was ridiculously good. I say that as someone who goes to a lot of conferences. Also I met a bunch of folks from HN, and that's never bad.

Whats up sh1mmer. Thanks for the tips on dealing with yui. Still love jquery, but at least now I can work in yui.

Anyone who is serious about JavaScript, or their career as whole in web-related technologies, should go ahead and save money for next year's event. It was simply blinding how many bright minds were in one room...

Alternatively, move to someplace between San Francisco and San Jose then enjoy javascript and web-related technologies all year long.

Cool writeup. Plan to make it to the next one.

>> All those XML “stanzas” (my heart sinks just typing that)

Classic :)

Having been to a bunch of conferences in the past two years, this conference was second only to RubyFringe in terms of sheer awesomeness. JSConf scores extra points for showcasing so many different new and ridiculously nifty technologies in one place.

JSConf was a blast.I walked away with the feeling that JavaScript was going somewhere beyond the web. With Canvas, Server Side, DBs, etc it feels like JavaScript is slowly and irresistibly going to take over everything.

"Third, WebKit gets the prize for our favorite JS engine (not surprising with all the Cocoa love being shown)"

Why? WebKit doesn't have much to do with cocoa.

If you're building apps with Cocoa, it's very easy to embed and drive WebKit.

I've been to so many conferences and trade shows that I've long ago lost count. JSConf2009 was, without a doubt, the best organized, best agenda, best venue (for the conference), best speakers, best spouse program, . . . I don't know where to stop.

Just the absolute best.

I don't know about you all, but I am looking forward to JSConf 2010. I can't wait for those crazy organizers to put out the videos!

Excellent summary and commentary for the rest of us who weren't there. Thanks so much for posting it.
