Yes, I’ll see you there! And remeber, it’s not me that gets newer and cooler, it’s Salesforce.com that gets newer and cooler. I get older and less cool each day!

Steve – that’s great news. I’ll see you at NTEN, yes? My only complaint is that your work is moving faster than I am – just when I start to tell the nonprofit community about something new and cool – you’ve made it newer and cooler!

Yeah Glenn, I can’t wait to try that. Working with the AJAX toolkit has been really great, but I’m looking forward to moving complex logic down to Apex where it will be faster and more maintainable. I really like the fact that it’s compiled on save time so the Eclipse plug-in pointed out my errors to me without having to do the Save-Run in Browser-Look at Firebug for the Error-Fix-Save-Run in Browser loop!

My “Blow your mind” moment came when I realized that I could take use 2 lines of code to turn an APEX Code method to a WSDL that could be accessed via AJAX and could clean up a huge amount of ugly JavaScript code.

Ah, and so it begins. Looking forward to some discussions over at the NTC next week to see how we can crank out some effeciency gains on the Joomla side as well. Any time you read a 90% reduction in code, you know that something very powerful is going on. Glad to see the community’s got someone like you kicking the tires.

Rock on!
