The Ajax Experience
Boston · October 23 - 25, 2006
Program Manager of the Internet Explorer Platform at Microsoft
Chris Wilson is the group program manager of the Internet Explorer Platform at Microsoft. He's worked on web browsers since 1993, when he co-authored the first version of NCSA Mosaic for Windows. Since 1995, he's worked on Microsoft's web platform. In this 13-year-running saga, he's inflicted good (first implementation of Cascading Style Sheets in IE) and bad (overlapping <b> and <i> tags) on the world, and figures his karma will be even by 2012 the way he's going.
In his free time, he enjoys photography and hiking with his wife and one-year-old daughter, and scuba diving in the chilly waters of Puget Sound as a PADI Assistant Instructor. With any free money, he replaces the cameras he's destroyed by taking them underwater for dive photography. Occasionally he remembers to share his thoughts on his blog.
