Clash of the Titans: Releasing the Kraken | NodeJS @paypal

Bill Scott (PayPal)
Grand Ballroom B

How do you take a large titan like PayPal and move it from a culture of a long shelf life to a culture of rapid experimentation? You set the UI free by adding liberal doses of NodeJS, JavaScript templating & libraries, JSON, Github and Lean Startup/UX. Bill will explain the transformation that is in process to revolutionize the technical and experience stack at PayPal.
