Read the interview of Tim O’Reilly’s interview on Adobe Edge newsletter.
Excerpted:
Edge: Looking toward the future, what advice do you have for web developers to stay ahead of the curve?
Tim O’Reilly: The first thing I’d say: Developers need to be agile. What we’re seeing on the cutting edge of application development is that people are getting very comfortable with running and gunning and writing applications quickly. Look at Cal Henderson and Flickr. He was pushing a new build out on the Internet every 30 minutes. Corporate IT development shops needs to wake up and smell the coffee.
The whole interview is very interesting. And I believe being able to put things together quickly is going to be a big challenge for software developers!
You’re right, that was a ver interesting interview. Thanks for linking to it! I agreed with O’Reilly’s comments about Google’s proposed book search index. I think it will help the publishing industry rather than hurt it. Anyway, thanks again for posting the link.
