Examples and Comparisons of Events, Pub Sub and Deferred Promises

[pe...@otaqui.com]

I've written a post demonstrating and comparing three observer patterns in javascript.

If you're interested in reading it (or, given that this is comp.lang.javascript I guess you might be interested in ripping me a new one) it's here:

I see nothing in here that really explains why you want to compare
promises/deferred objects with the other two patterns. The comparison
between event emitters and PubSub is clear enough, if a little over-
simplified. But I don't personally think of Promises as solutions to
the same sort of problems, so I was looking forward to an interesting
explanation of how you found them to overlap. But there was nothing
there. I think this need some significant elaboration.
