Dori Smith - credited with getting Robert to blog and the author of the definitive book on JavaScript - speaks with Maryam and Robert Scoble about JavaScript issues past, present and future as she finds herself at the center of the Web 2.0 world, now that JavaScript is cool again (so is her 24-inch Dell monitor).

  1. She got me into blogging « Scobleizer - Tech Geek Blogger Says:

    […] never forget Dori Smith’s prodding to learn about blogging. I’m glad my wife interviewed her for the ScobleShow. Oh, yeah, she knows some other stuff too.wrote the book on JavaScript. Plus she has the coolest office I’ve been in so far (less than a block from the nearest winery too). Filed under: blogging @4:03 pm # […]

    Dori, a refreshing, inclusive, response to “where are the women at tech-cons?” Inclusiveness is more than gender … as you point out it’s age, backgrounds, perspectives, etc.

    Robert - a suggestion to have a link-log of all the cool people, places and things that are mentioned in these ‘casts. Most would be free links, some could be paid for by the corps mentioned if appropriate.

    Dori deserves credit as one of the Web’s most effective mentors of women in technology in her role as list-mom of the wise-women list (and the wise-women.org website.) Her work in maintaining the wise-women listserv has helped hundreds of women (and men!) improve and learn many aspects of technology.

    […] She also did her very first Podtech interview this week with Javascript guru Dori Smith. (I wish she were a PHP guru - I need one right now…sigh) I haven’t watched it yet but I’m really enjoying the idea of having women in tech featured more prominently. […]

    […] So, thats why we are such a happy bunch Brooks also describes a few woes, but i won’t spoil the mood right now. If you haven’t got a clue what i’m talking about, you should watch the interview Robert Scoble did with Dori Smith, a javascript programmer and writer of several books, and of course a blogger, on this subject. She’s the proof for Brooks analyses! […]
