| | Functioning Form - Thoughts from James Gosling (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04) |
 | | James Gosling (Chief Technology Officer of Sun's Developer Products group) recently gave a talk that, among other things, illuminated how the development side of the product equation faces many of the same complexity issues that user experience teams must wrangle with. |
 | | Gosling is no stranger to complexity, he did the original design of the Java programming language, implemented its original compiler and virtual machine, built Emacs and a suite of other applications including satellite data acquisition systems, a multiprocessor version of Unix, several compilers, and mail systems. |
 | | Gosling pointed out that current development tools are gradually moving from “edit, compile, and debug” to “learn, explore, and share”. |
