I got to present a pair of talks on Jifty at the London Perl Workshop this weekend. It's always a pleasure to get to hang out with the folks from london.pm....even if they do attempt to drag me out for drunken Karaoke on occasion.
Seriously, though, I had a great time.
I was the first talk of the morning in the beginners' track. The "intro-level" talk is a derivative of the talk I gave at OSCON, by way of Audrey's presentation of it at Amazon. You can download a PDF of the talk.
After lunch, I was the first talk in the advanced track. As I'd been expecting to give a second (shorter) introductory talk, I spent most of the plane ride over and the previous evening desperately cranking out slides for Scary Jifty, a talk about some of the deep magic we're using behind the scenes to make developing with Jifty simple and clean. If you want to see a bit about Template::Declare, IPC::PubSub and some hacks that...will likely be used by my detractors to besmirch my good name, check out a PDF of the talk.
