I am fortunate enough to have been given an incredible opportunity by O'Reilly to lead the vision of InsideRIA.com. Over the past few months I have worked with O'Reilly and Adobe to put together a team of rock stars in the Rich Internet Application world.

This is the Development category and will include contributions by our Development experts on todays newest RIA technoligies and techniques. Our experts will explore the many areas of RIA development from web to desktop, the different software choices, the methods for building them, ways to work with data within RIA, etc. This category will also be offering full length feature articles, screencasts, and eventually podcasts as well.

I encourage you to visit the "Meet the Experts" page within InsideRIA to see the credentials of our experts and build a relationship with them by offering feedback on what content you would like to see and where you would like InsideRIA heading in the future.
