Last week Laszlo announced its web mail application. Later this year Earthlink will deploy a branded version of this application.
Update: Laszlo Systems is hosting open registration for Laszlo Mail here.
I first heard of Ruby at the second Lightweight Languages Workshop 2, where Matz and I were both speakers. This was first public disclosure of the then-proprietary Laszlo platform language. I’m afraid I was more worried about preparing my talk then listening to Matz at the time!
Since then, a number of different people have expressed interest in both Laszlo and Ruby. I figured I had finally better take a look at it.
Laszlo’s main office is in a spiffy office building in San Mateo.
But Boston Product Development (basically, the OpenLaszlo development team) works out of a cafe.
This puts us in good company. (And we get better coffee, too.)
