The Backbone.js Refactor

Excellent detailed talk. Gave overview as well as good examples of his code and experience.

Excellent introduction. My only problem was the repeated statement that the new code was a lot better. From what I could see it was somewhat cleaner code but it seemed to be an incremental improvement and marginal as a time investment.

There were probably major improvements but that I didn't see in the examples but they weren't explicitly covered.

Inspired by this talk I did a similar refactor of a personal project and am very happy with it. It will be much easier now to add new features and on a whole it just feels a bit stabler. Thanks!

Nice overview of the framework and how to use it to refactor existing code. Planning on doing this soon so the lessons learned will surely help.
