Fast Feather Talk | Apache CallBack

Join Michael Brooks of Adobe/Nitobi for an introduction to the new Apache Incubator project Callback. Previously known as PhoneGap, Callback is a framework that enables developers to create rich cross-platform applications using HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS. Callback now has over 600,000 downloads and has been used to build thousands of applications for Android, BlackBerry, iOS, and other operating systems. In this presentation, you'll learn about the framework, why companies such as Adobe, HP/Palm, IBM, Microsoft, and Sony are contributing to the project, and how you can become involved!
