JSConf History

" summary

JSConf US 2009 claims to have catalyzed a worldwide family: over 50 events now run on every inhabited continent, spawning local meetups, training and new conference series that created new local communities in Portugal, Scotland and Brazil. The fold produces measurable reach — 2.5 million views and roughly 50 million minutes of video — and concrete tools (Paul builds Tito, now a popular ticketing system). Organizing is brutally hard work but repeatedly yields lasting communities.
