- “It’s like JavaScript on Rails”
- “This is the most exciting thing I’ve seen in web development in a long time.”
I’m also really excited to see some of the cool apps I heard people talking about after the presentation! Be sure to let us know on the mailing list when you have something cool to share.

I was at the WWDC session and it was just awesome, guys! I really enjoyed talking to you afterwards. I was the first one to say something during Q&A afterwards and I think the 2nd and 3rd quotes were said by me in an outburst of joy and excitement
I wrote a small blog post about it here: http://blog.springenwerk.com/2008/06/sproutcore-javascript-on-rails-drinking.html
