FYI, there was a great turnout to our February meeting on a similar topic. If you are interested, feel free to attend. The Web SIG is part of the Heartland User Group (www.hugkc.org) and discusses web development as a whole and is not product/manufacturer specific. The Web SIG's listserv is linked below.
Ryan -----Original Message----- From: Glenn Crocker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 19, 2003 3:34 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: March 26th, 6:30pm: Rich Internet Applications The March 26th (next Wednesday) Web SIG meeting topic is "Rich Internet Applications" (RIAs). Michael Falkner, of ThinqDigital (http://www.thinqdigital.com/) will be covering the concept of rich web-based applications. These generally include Flash front-ends and a web services (ColdFusion, .Net, ASP, etc.) approach to retrieving and storing information. Michael will be covering the possibilities, sample sites, and look at how the sites are built (with sample code). RIAs are amazing for presenting complex information and enabling users to interact quickly and in complex ways with data, products, and sites. For many sites, RIAs improve the user experience in ways traditional page-oriented web sites can't touch. ThinqDigital is the local Macromedia Authorized Training Partner, so this should be close to a "from the horse's mouth" kind of presentation, since Macromedia drives the client side (Flash) and often the server side (ColdFusion). March 26th, from 6:30pm to 8:30pm at Technisource (formerly IntelliMark), 9300 W. 110th St, Suite 460. See you there!
