Description:
Whether you're new to Rails or have been around few years, chances are that your views are primitive. Detonate what you know about how views are written and let's start over.
In this session we'll discuss... - Why your views suck - Instance variables are stupid - Kill helpers and work with objects - Drawing the line between "C" and "V" - Treating views as API customers - Rethinking templating
By the end you'll be dying to blow up your views.

Such a great talk. I appreciate the effort it takes to build a well structured and thoughtful presentation, your animations and pacing were really smooth. I really liked your jQuery Air training from codeschool.com, and look forward to more.
Thanks!
Really good thoughts and a well put together presentation. A+++++++++ WOULD RECOMMEND

I need to bottle up some of your stage presence for when I give talks. Well done!
One of the best talks of LSRC. Jeff always has a strong stage presence and very professional, well prepared content. Don't miss his talks if you get a chance to attend one.

I'm going to go back & measure all my apps in terms of green blocks now. Great talk!
I didn't think I was going to find this interesting, but you pulled me in. Good job.
Your talk is going to change my life with Rails.
Thanks for coming and especially for the feedback, it is appreciated. Here are the slides: http://jumpstartlab.com/files/presentations/blow_up_your_views_lsrc.pdf

Great job, Jeff! A really refreshing and practical philosophy on views Rails. I'll be playing with the draper gem a lot.
good talk, I like how you seem to have a view that encompasses ideas outside of just ruby\rails.
