WEEK 3: THE NODE.JS DRIVER

Thank you Wade for leading this one :-) !!!

This is the session where ge use of node.js is introduced. Here two reasons why this is exciting

1. NodeJS is now the #1 software development platform :-D

2. It's not only available for all operating systems, it is even compatible with other JS interpreters - see how node's dependence on open source V8 engine (developed by Google), has been extended to Microsoft Chakra [nodejs-welcomes-microsoft-chakra-javascript-engine].
