Details
We got a surprise for you this month! Guillermo Rauch of LearnBoost will be presenting on the next generation of Socket.IO that he's been working on and David Gouldin of Votizen will be talking about his experience as a member of the "Return of the Starcraft" 2011 Node Knockout team and our entry LocalNode which was runner-up in the Utility category!
LocalNode (http://nodeknockout.com/teams/return-of-the-starcr) by David Gouldin
Winner of "The Unauthorized Node Knockout 2 Awards (http://hueniverse.com/2011/09/the-unauthorized-node-knockout-2-awards/)" (;P) as judged by Eran Hammer of OAuth fame, LocalNode was an install-free, configuration-free web proxy to share any site on your LAN. David Gouldin will discuss what it was like participating in Node Knockout (http://nodeknockout.com) 2011, and the issues we faced building a web proxy in node and the browser using XHR2 (http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/file/xhr2/), WebSockets (http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/websockets/basics/) and Socket.io (http://socket.io/).
Engine.IO by Guillermo Rauch
The next generation of Socket.IO core, Engine.IO is the future of Socket.IO's realtime communication. Guillermo Rauch is the father of realtime communication in node and arguably shares some of the credit for node's success with his amazing work.
