A Bigfoot Impression

\\n\\n

This episode had us diving into the real-time web with\\nNathan Fritz, the Chief Architect for\\n&yet, and the man who has foolishly agreed to help Chris\\nlearn the finer points of Node.js. You can just hear the\\nexcitement in all our voices as we discuss Web 3.14159 aka the Real Time Web.\\nNathan is one smart motherfucker so be prepared to have lots of knowledge\\nexploded into your brain.

\\n\\n

Nathan also discusses his previous life as a PHP guy, what XMPP is all about,\\nand his book-in-progress on Lua scripting in Redis.

\\n\\n
