Here's what networking awesomeness I'd like to talk about:

- Using Twisted's inline deferred callbacks to write very short, very
powerful network code (like load testers and web scrapers)

- Using Thrift + Rabbit to easily add a service-oriented architecture
to an existing mixed language/mix component system.

Even if you haven't heard of Twisted, Thrift, and Rabbit, don't worry!
The basics are pretty straightforward.

I am very sorry that I missed the meeting as we're using RabbitMQ+json
for a bunch of stuff, and I'd like to look at a format like Thrift or
BSON that has faster serialization/de-serialization and can provide an
even lower latency multi-language accessible remote protocol.

And of course I think async programming ala twisted is going to do
better and better because of javascript, which forces an async method
of handling concurrency on it's developers and has generally raised
awareness of async programming.

Hope it was a great meeting, and as I said I'm sorry I missed it.

We're also using RabbitMQ and Twisted's inlineCallbacks (in Twister,
the Twisted-enabled Tornado - http://tornadoweb.org), but not Thrift
(hrr... I hate this trend toward completely generic common-word
project names - Thrift, Carrot, Celery, ANNOYING)

Zach is back in Michigan for a bit, and will be presenting on other
topics at the next http://a2newtech.org meetup, but you'll find likely
find him at http://techbrewery.org during the day, or http://coffeehousecoders.org
Wed nights...
