The Future of Web Applications

The Ajax revolution saw a sea change in web application development. By taking advantage of long-dormant browser capabilities, we were able to take our craft to new levels--reinventing well-established genres, challenging desktop applications, and jump-starting a renaissance in web start-ups.

In this presentation, recorded at Øredev 2009, Dion Almaer and Ben Galbraith (Creators of Ajaxian.com) examine the many factors contributing to the web as platform and also explore what the next stage of evolution for the web might look like.
