Well we ran into a few technical difficulties getting the web conference software set up. It turns out that Adobe ConnectPro requires Flash 10 where as simply Adobe Connect that we had tested on only requires Flash 9. It took a bit to get all the

computers updated. If I remember correctly, we finally got started about 6:45 - 7 instead of 6:30.
The good news is that we did get the presentation recorded. Head on over and check it out.

Online Innovative Creations has been invited by the World Organization of Webmasters, Central Illinois chapter to give a presentation on Exponent.
First, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Jonathan Worent. You may know me better from
... [More]
the forums as pebcak_error. I have been a developer with Online Innovative Creations for a few months now. Outside of OIC, I am also the World Organization of Webmasters (WOW) Central Illinois chapter president.
Being the WOW chapter President, Exponent user, and OIC Senior Web Developer, I am in a unique position. I have twisted the rest of the OIC team’s arms to give a presentation on Exponent at our next WOW meeting (Oct. 15th 6:30pm CST). Normally, our meetings are in person (and private as there are dues to be a World Organization of Webmasters member). But as an Exponent user (and developer) I wanted to try to get you, the Exponent Community involved.
We are going to attempt to broadcast the WOW meeting as a web conference so that you guys can listen in on the Exponent presentation. I only have 40 connections available. They will be on a first come first served basis so you’ll need to email directly for more information.
October 15th
6:30 PM CST
Only 40 spots available
Email jonathan@oicgroup.net for information.

The Exponent 2.0 codeline has now become Open Source and available for download.
This release of the code is targeted towards developers and community members wishing to get more involved in documentation and bug testing. Over the last
... [More]
month, us here at Online Innovative Creations have shifted our focus towards getting the systems and guidelines in place to allow for more community involvement in the development process.
Although us here at OIC are very pleased with how Exponent's new framework is shaping up, we don't feel it has the polish you'd expect from a beta release. We also don't want to miss out on the valuable input and help we stand to gain from the community who's itching to get their hands on the code.
You can download a copy of the current MVC codeline on exponentframework.org. Be sure to check out the latest Developer Blog before you get started to know what to expect from on install.
Thanks to those community members who've been so patient (and persistent!) in getting in to the new code. Your support has been encouraging. [Less]

... [More]
good questions in the question and answer session following the presentation.
As we move forward, we'll be documenting our progress on exponentframework.org, a site we've specifically launched to help incoming Exponent developers stay organized and in good development processes. It's here, we've posted the videos (the webinar itself, and the 2 “lost in translation” videos) for community viewing and commenting. Here's the link:
http://exponentframework.org/exponent-framework-developers-blog
Stay tuned for more on the next webinar coming in the next couple weeks. This webinar will get deeper in to the code, highlighting the power and ease in the rapid development of custom modules within the new Exponent Framework.
Thanks again to all who attended Camp fire, and we look forward to seeing even more eager coders in “Playing with Matches”. [Less]
