On Friday, April 4, 2008 in Salt Lake City experts, noted authors, and notable bloggers will lead a series of in depth presentations on developing rich internet applications (or RIAs).
You'll learn about cutting edge Flex, AIR, and AJAX programming. You'll be readying for the next phase of web development.
More than just theory, sessions are focused on practical application. Three simultaneously running tracks ensure that whether you're looking for an introduction or hoping to expand existing skills there will be something for you. In addition, we've lengthened the time of each presentation slot to allow our speakers to go into greater depth.
The price is $159/person and is limited to the first 50 attendees. Registration can be done with a major credit card via our partners at RegOnline. The RIA Dev Shed is produced by Vox Pop Design. It is underwritten by the Salt Lake ColdFusion User's Group, the Northern Utah ColdFusion User's Group, and Utah's Flex User Group.
