Dylan Schiemann

Dylan Schiemann, CEO, SitePen Inc., co-creator of Dojo Toolkit
It all started in 1999 when Dylan dropped out of the PhD program at UCLA and left the fascinating world of statistics of shear-induced rearrangements in a two-dimensional model foam and the accumulation of glucosaminyl(acyl)phosphatidylinositol in an S3 HeLa subline expressing normal dolicholphosphomannose synthase activity to refocus his efforts on the future of the web. As CEO of SitePen and co-founder of the Dojo Toolkit, Dylan is best known for building web applications that make use of JavaScript/Ajax, Dojo, and other standard web development technologies. He has helped develop web apps for companies including Renkoo, Informatica, Security FrameWorks, and Vizional Technologies.
Dylan is an avid Oakland A's fan, a lover of the hammer throw, devoted husband, father to three obnoxious dogs and resides on JetBlue Airways.

Friday night. I won't be
able to attend, though
we'll be sending Jason
Cline to the event to

iPhone By Dylan Schiemann Apple's new application,
Numbers, is a really nice
refreshing blend of Excel
and a general diagramming
tool. It is surprisingly
feature-rich, making
actually somewhat more
complex to use than a
typical Apple app. It's
interesting that the new
iWork suite has the

working out the details,
we?ve just announced the
Dojo Grid! It took a
significant amount of
effort to make this
happen, but we've managed
to come together with a
bunch of people in the
community to bring an
excellent grid widget to
Dojo in ti... Sep. 17, 2007 04:45 PM Reads: 10,739 Replies: 1 | iPhone Bar Camp By Dylan Schiemann  I usually skip BarCamp
and other hackathon
coding events because
they consume a lot of
time and I don't usually
get as much accomplished
as I do at my desk. That
said, when a major new
platform like the iPhone
gets released, an event
such as the iPhone Dev

Replaced MySpace By Dylan Schiemann In my annual informal
review of social networks
among our cousins and
other people under 21
that are still fickle,
Facebook has completely
replaced MySpace in their
lives. In fact, the only
people I hear talking
regularly about MySpace
are a bit older and just

Platforms By Dylan Schiemann After writing a recent
post about thinking
outside the (browser)

Internet Explorer,
Safari, Opera, and
perhaps WAP for mobile

applications provide a
better end-user
experience than
traditional Web sites.
Fast performance is
absolutely essential to

potential. The large

and the additional
complexity that AJAX adds

AJAX and Comet By Dylan Schiemann Ajax and comet are great
techniques for getting
data to and from the
server, But they do
little to address the
requirements of
