I had the chance to talk about Dojo at JavaOne last week, and one of the attendees, Kenn Thisted, was nice enough to create OpenSearch plugins for dojotoolkit.org and api.dojotoolkit.org:

If you are using Firefox 2 or 3, or Internet Explorer 7, you can easily add Dojo search to your browser's search bar.
We're planning to have either dojo.dinner or dojo.beer after Alex and Joe's BOF Wednesday May 7th at JavaOne in San Francisco. Please send email to rsvp *at* dojotoolkit dot org if you want to join us. The BOF is finished at 7:30, so we'll start around then.
After a few weeks of trying to find out who owned the twitter user dojo, I've given up, and registered dojotoolkit. So, if you want to follow along with Dojo on twitter, follow http://twitter.com/dojotoolkit
At SitePen, we've just added a new Dojo QuickStart Guide. This guide was developed by the SitePen support team.
For the 4th straight year, we'll be heading to the Salt Lick on Sunday night (8pm) at SXSW, this year on March 9. If you are interested in attending this year, please RSVP to rsvp *at- dojotoolkit *dot* org by March 2. Let us know if you have a car and can drive others, or if you need a ride, and we'll make sure everyone can get there.

"I've been working on integrating Grails and the recently released Dojo 1.0.2. I'm particularly interested in the Dijit components that are now part of Dojo. It seems like a clean, easy way to get some AJAX widgetry into a web application. Grails comes with plugins for common AJAX frameworks - YUI, Dojo 0.4.2(?), and Prototype. Someone's even released a nifty AJAX "dummies" plugin called richUI."
I'd like to give a huge thanks to Google for making Dojo Developer Day the best event we've had yet. The facilities were great, and the Dojo-themed name tags were an awesome extra touch! We really appreciate the support!
In the Contributor Day of DDD 4, we covered a number of topics. Here are some select slides from the event:
Tonight, festivities continue at Tied House in Mountain View at 7pm. See you there.
We're working on assembling a great collection of Dojo demos and tutorials. While we get that work completed, I've added an initial collection of current and useful Dojo demos and tutorials to help you get started with Dojo.
