Extremely informative and far sighted, the use of XMPP in place of conventional web services seems to be a excellent direction to take web application interactions.
This was a good presentation in terms of data and information presented, but Blaine is not the best public speaker (I guess that is why he is an awesome engineer, instead :)). Still it was very informative.
A good combination of high level and low level discussion. I did not know much about Jabber before the session, but was pretty impressed with the possibilities. I guess the session was quite good after all :)
Blaine did an excellent presentation; however, I had hoped that the session was so focused on Jabber. Although, I did learn quite a bit about Jabber.
I wished that Blaine had given a better definition of Jabber at the beginning and shown some sample applications. I entered the session with no idea of what Jabber is.





I think Blaine did a good job of presenting technical details at a level that suited me. I just wish I had an immediate application for this!
