JSConf 2015 Charlie McConnell
summary
Claims a simple, syncable timeline OS where each event is a JSON Timeline pins sent via a Node.js library to users or topics, demonstrated by posting the JSConf schedule; describes backend stack (MongoDB, Redis, SQS workers), deployment as version-controlled immutable artifacts using Docker + CoreOS and warns about Docker pitfalls; cites original Pebble’s $10.2M Kickstarter and shows a working demo called Toilet Time (Arduino lock → Node server → timeline pin) that actually updates watch timelines.
