RIA Weekly Podcast, Episode 01 – Ajax, Flex, Silverlight, Chumby, VisualStudio, and more

In this first episode of RIA Weekly, Ryan Stewart, Charles Lowell, and I talk about a wide swath of topics:

• Ryan asks Charles what how his company, The Front Side decided how “dressed up” their UIs should be. Charles says the major limit is time and skill.
• We talk about James Ward‘s Flex sightings at Oracle OpenWorld (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7), which moves into Flex in enterprise development
• I ask Ryan about the current state of Silverlight and how much video plays into it.
• We also talk about the Chumby I recently got and how that fits into the idea of RIAs.
• Finally, Ryan tells us about the upcoming VisualStudio release.

There’re probably some things I missed, but that’s the gist of it.

If all goes as planned, Ryan and I will be back next week for another episode. Feel free to leave comments below.
