I have not encountered this definition of "realtime" before; what does it mean in the context of web applications?<p>(I expected something closer to what is described here: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_computing" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_computing</a> - RTOS and similar topics.)
I'll be attending, I'm really excited about it. Adam Lowry's session is one that I've got bookmarked, as is the geoloqi mapattack walk through.<p>I'll look forward to meeting you all there.
I'm one of the organizers, but yeah, we're a small dev shop in Eastern Washington who just love doing realtime stuff so we figured we'd try to throw a conference about it.<p>Didn't really realize how much interest there would be. Personally, I'm pretty pumped to hear about some of the new realtime frameworks. NullMQ, SocketStream, Derby, et. al.<p>Looking forward to adding some of those tools to the 'ol toolbelt.
If you're doing anything with the real-time web (websockets, node, twisted, etc), you need to be there. If you look through the speaker list, you'll see there's almost no fluff, just lots of experienced implementors. I think the same will be true of the attendees.<p>To be clear, I'm not affiliated in anyway, just excited about attending.
