CWSA: Frameworks in Plain English September 8, 2009

Frameworks are everywhere these days. You can hardly find a site that does not use one or more to get the job done.

Join the CWSA as we welcome Chris Miller, Co-Founder and Lead Developer of Podiobooks.com and Senior Developer, American Greetings Interactive as he takes us on a journey meant to answer such questions as: What is a framework? Why would I use one? What are the pros and cons of using a framework? What are the most prevelent frameworks in use today, and where can I find them?

Christopher T. Miller stumbled online in 1987 and has not looked back since. He’s the Co-Founder and Lead Architect of Podiobooks.com, one of the most popular sites on the web for serialized audiobooks. During the day, he's lucky enough to work with the talented team at American Greetings interactive. When not writing code, he is also the Co-Host of The Secret Lair podcast. In the past, he has also been a writer/publisher of role-playing games, a BBS sysop, a barista, a maker of golf clubs, a medievalist, an editor, and a Doctor Who fan.
