I had one of two options, drink green beer on St. Patrick's Day or give a JQuery presentation a TVBUG. Silly me I chose to give the presentation. All kidding aside, today, I had the privilege to speak at the Toronto Visual Basic User's Group. I decided to give the talk a St. Patrick’s theme and provided green food colouring for the water. I also gave the talk while wearing a St. Patrick’s hat.

The topic was on jQuery a technology that I have embraced for the last few months. As ASP.NET developers we need to upgrade our skill sets and be able to provide rich internet applications. jQuery is one such technology that delivers Web 2.0 type functionality. The audience was quite engaged and at the end of the presentation I got some very positive feedback and interest in jQuery. If you want to see the presentation online then visit the site. 

Here are some photos from the meeting.
