“MooTools as a General Purpose Application Framework” by Christoph Pojer

I wanted to bring attention to an outstanding presentation given by MooTools Core Developer Christoph Pojer.  Given at FOSDEM 2010, Christoph provides an overview of what MooTools is, who should use it, how it should be used.  Examples are given throughout the presentation. 


I highly recommend MooTools users of all experience levels watch this video, as well as jQuery or Dojo users looking to simply understand what this framework is about.
