This is as days pass by, by Stuart Langridge

And this is Video of "Secrets of JavaScript Closures" available, written , and concerning JavaScript and the DOM, Conferences

The Secrets of JavaScript Closures talk that I delivered at Fronteers 2008 was filmed, and the video is now available. You can watch it with streaming Flash video from the presentation page. (I've dropped a mail to ask whether I can re-encode it as downloadable Ogg Theora for people who don't have Flash.)

You can host files on BLIP.tv in Theora format. They will even do the re-encoding for you.

Ugh

Javascript is the most powerful language out there? You gotta be kidding...

I could make a list of languages that are more powerful than JS, both mainstream and obscure. (all of which have closures)

An interesting example is is Io (http://iolanguage.com/), another prototype-based language that is smaller, cleaner and vastly more powerful than JS. Code is data and can be modified at runtime, which means you can do things that are absolutely impossible in most every other language besides Lisp... (which probably is the *actual* #1 in terms of power)

It would seem that the video became unavailable. Too bad, I was really looking forward to watching it.

Joe: sorry, the Bachelors ICT people informed me of the proper link, and I've updated the page.
