      <title>All About Sammy</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Got another quick presentation for ya. I discovered &lt;a href="http://code.quirkey.com/sammy/"&gt;Sammy&lt;/a&gt; yesterday. I gave a quick talk about it today. That&amp;#8217;s how easy it is to understand!&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://code.quirkey.com/sammy/"&gt;Sammy&lt;/a&gt; is a tiny, client-side JavaScript framework, created by the obviously brilliant Aaron Quint, built on jQuery, and inspired by the server-side Ruby framework Sinatra. It&amp;#8217;s the minimalist&amp;#8217;s framework for RIAs. You know, those uber rich internet applications. Single page, no refresh apps. Like Gmail. Except without all those kilobytes you may or may not ever need. Sammy is 7kb, minified. And gzipped? You won&amp;#8217;t even know you downloaded it.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Watch the preso for more&amp;#8230;&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div style="width:425px;text-align:left" id="__ss_1757335"&gt;&lt;a style="font:14px Helvetica,Arial,Sans-serif;display:block;margin:12px 0 3px 0;text-decoration:underline;" href="http://www.slideshare.net/joydivider/sammy" title="All About Sammy"&gt;All About Sammy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;object style="margin:0px" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://static.slidesharecdn.com/swf/ssplayer2.swf?doc=sammy-090723013002-phpapp02&amp;#38;stripped_title=sammy" /&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"/&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"/&gt;&lt;embed src="http://static.slidesharecdn.com/swf/ssplayer2.swf?doc=sammy-090723013002-phpapp02&amp;#38;stripped_title=sammy" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div style="font-size:11px;font-family:tahoma,arial;height:26px;padding-top:2px;"&gt;View more &lt;a style="text-decoration:underline;" href="http://www.slideshare.net/"&gt;presentations&lt;/a&gt; from &lt;a style="text-decoration:underline;" href="http://www.slideshare.net/joydivider"&gt;Scott Becker&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
