10up on Fire at WordCamp Phoenix 2014

Paul Clark on January 16, 2014

WordCamp Phoenix holds a special place in my (Paul Clark) heart as a place of many firsts.

In 2012, Taylor Aldridge and I watched 10up’s Helen Hou-Sandi present on Maintaining a Beautiful WordPress Admin UI. It was our first WordCamp as a small agency called Brainstorm Media.

In 2013, I returned for my first time as a speaker, presenting How WordPress Saves Lives: Freedom, Hope, and Custom Post Types.

This year, Taylor Aldridge and I are proud both to be speaking and to a be a part of the 10up team. As the start to an exciting new year, Brainstorm Media joined the talented team of WordPress developers at 10up.

In total, that makes five team members and six talks that will be presenting at WordCamp Phoenix this year. Find us on the schedule, and come chat with us at the after party!

Taylor Aldridge: You Know it’s Good, Cause it’s Blue
Paul Clark: Cowboy, meet Ninja: How to never crash a site again
Heather Hogan: Scoping, Contracting, and Getting Paid
Eric Mann: Ten Lessons on Customer-centric Development and {12} Needs Unit Tests
Adam Silverstein: Revising WordPress Revisions

10up and jQuery go to Russia

Eric Mann on November 1, 2013

This has been a year of firsts, from first releases on 10up’s GitHub account to our first internal dev summit. This year also saw 10up’s first appearance at jQuery Russia – coincidentally also the first jQuery conference in Russia!

A little over a week ago, I had the opportunity to visit Moscow for an incredible day of development talks at Digital October. The conference was sponsored by ITmozg in Russia, and headlined by the president of the jQuery Foundation, Dave Methvin.

The snacks were as impressive as the talks!

jQuery Russia covered topics from JavaScript performance to the use of $.Deferred. I was able to present an overview of the HTML5 web worker API along with a live demonstration of the million monkey problem – implemented entirely in JavaScript.

jQuery Russia was an amazing experience for everyone involved, and it showed me just how well different parts of the international development community can work together. I don’t speak Russian and presented my talk with the help of an interpreter. Many of the attendees didn’t speak English, but were able to ask me questions about code after the talk and throughout the conference – again, with the aid of an interpreter.

All of the conference speakers were invited back to the main stage at the end of the day for an interactive Q&A session. Questions ranged from browser standards to what we’d like to see added to JavaScript to where we see jQuery in 5-10 years. The range of opinions was impressive, but the expertise that backed each was even more so.
