Please visit the "Road to Las Vegas", a fun new totally WebObjects app 
that is a cross between "Where's Waldo" and "Adopt-a-Highway". Just 
launched it two days ago. Here's the url:

I, too, noticed the "WebObjects and Web 2.0" session at WWDC. I saw 
some chatter here on the list about it. But, what I also noticed is 
that this is really the only interesting WebObjects session at WWDC 
this year. Why is that? Why aren't there more?

Perhaps some of you remember the year 2000? There was a multitude of 
knowledge shared that year and a really strong WebObjects track, not 
just a single session. That's great for those of us who where there, 
those who remember, but what about those unfortunate souls who missed 
out?

I have posted all seventeen WebObjects sessions from WWDC 2000 on our 
site. Perhaps not politically correct, but I thought I'd try it. Even 
though that was 6 years ago, that information is still VERY relevant 
today because WebObjects is just so far beyond any other offering. I 
hear people comparing D2W to scaffolding in Ruby on Rails, but they 
don't have a clue. I hear people talking about Java WebStart and "only 
if" they could figure out how to get it to work. If they watched this 
series of videos, they'd have an all new understanding.

You can get to the videos by visiting our url then clicking the "Info" 
tab and then the "WebObjects Videos" subtab. I'm running them on Darwin 
Streaming Server. A friend tested viewing them from his home and it 
didn't work but from his office it did work. You'll need a fast 
connection so your mileage may vary. It's an experiment. I hope it 
works for you but if it doesn't, I'd like to hear about it.
