VI!
We are
developers.
3. And as developers we have
one thing that always keeps
us from making our lives a
*lot* easier.
4. The feature
creature

9. “You can do that in 5 lines of
code – after all you don’t
need to test before you apply
nowadays”
12. “Go ahead and add that hack.
It only has to work in IE6
anyways.”
13. “Comments in your own
language make a lot of sense.
If you use English, who’d
know where code ends and
the comment starts?”
14. “Yeah, Yahoo and Google
have a solution for this, but
you are better and can create
a smaller one!”
17. ...which means that the
quality of your work is
measured by how fast and
efficient you are.
20. Where I showed people how
to save time and money by
using things that are
available for free.
21. Design Patterns, Design Pattern Stencils
CSS frameworks: YUI grids, YAML, 960, Blueprint
Exceptional Performance Tips, YSlow, Hammerhead
Fix your picture sizes with smushit.com
Page widgets (things not in HTML): YUI, jQuery UI
Build an own search engine with Yahoo BOSS
YouTube API
Amazon S3 for storage
Batch video conversion with Amazon S3 and EC2
Captioning on a shoestring with CastingWords
Mechanical Turk

24. ...of us as developers not
trusting other people’s
solutions.
26. And some of us solve
problems for large,
distributed teams.
29. And yet as developers we
tend not to trust solutions of
those companies.
34. Do you have the time and
dedication to do the same for
all of your hand-rolled
solutions?
36. I also find myself doing work
that in retrospect doesn’t
make much sense or is
available as a native method.
37. The point is that as a
developer I act first and then
start reading the instructions.
40. They make the access to
systems and building
software on top of them
much easier.
42. Say you want to help your
clients find good keywords to
promote their product online.
43. You can do some research,
surf all the competitors’ sites
and note down the
descriptions, keywords and
titles.
44. You can be a man and use
CURL to write a script to do
that.
45. Or you can keep your eyes
open and check if there is an
API for that.
49. All you need to do is getting
the top 20, analyzing the
keyword frequency and
create a top 20.
51. Then you take YUI CSS grids,
and spend 30 minutes playing
with colours and fonts.
54. There is a *lot* of
*awesome* *free* and
*good* stuff out on the web.
56. People like me spend a lot of
time convincing people in big
companies that giving free
access to our systems is a
great thing...
57. ...to help developers and
small companies become a
success by not having to
repeat the same mistakes we
did.
58. Our main argument for all
these free goodies is that
gifted people like you will
create things faster and
better.
60. So help us show the system
that innovation works outside
if the inside helps the
community.
61. THANKS!
