Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! Can you believe we're already halfway through January? We've got a lot to cover, so let's press on! In particular, there's a lot of great video content to keep you occupied for hours this week. Enjoy!

1. Join Scott Andrews as he discusses the role of Javascript in an exciting webinar on January 24, 2013: Architecture of a Modern Web App.
2. Join Brian Cavalier and John Hann as they discuss Inversion of Control (IoC) and Javascript in a Webinar on January 31, 2013: IOC + Javascript.
3. The A thought with a cup of coffee!!! blog has an introductory post comparing Spring's ApplicationContext to the more general class, the BeanFactory.
4. Last year in April, I spoke at the Great Indian Developer Summit in Bangalore, India. The show was amazing and - I've just been made aware - some of the videos are starting to trickle online. One talk I gave was Spring and Cloud Foundry: a Marriage Made in Heaven, which you can watch online. Unfortunately, they don't seem to also have the slides! You can get the slides from my SlideShare.net profile page. There are multiple permutations of this deck. Enjoy!
5. We released two new SpringOne2GX session replays, Automated Provisioning of Spring Apps to EC2 & VMware vCloud, and Addressing the Big Data Challenge with a Graph: Spring Data Neo4j.
6. Did you miss Jan Machacek's fantastic talk, Akka Eye for the Spring Guy or Gal, from SpringOne2GX 2012? This video is also available on InfoQ!
7. The Java Code Geeks blog has a nice dissection of the way Spring MVC's RequestMappingHandlerMapping class works.
8. Roy Clarkson and Craig Walls' talk, Extending Spring MVC with Spring Mobile and JavaScript, is also now available on InfoQ!
9. Want to take baby steps in learning core Spring 3.0? This blog's for you!
10. Brian's Java blog has a fairly exhaustive introduction to building a SOAP-based web service using Spring Web Services. Definitely worth a read if you need to build contract-first, document-literal SOAP webservices!
11. Mark Reddy's written a nice blog on how to use Spring's autowiring capability in conjunction with the @Qualifier annotation.
12. The Kruders blog has an (I confess) very introductory look at how to setup a Spring MVC project with Log4j, but, sometimes, this is exactly what you need!
13. The Java Creed blog has a nice introduction to Spring's caching support as of 3.1.
14. Christos Matskas has put together a nice post on how to handle multiple object definition files with Spring.NET
15. The HMKCode blog also has a nice introductory look at core Spring.
16. The Kani Notes blog has a nice introduction to data-access logic with Spring and JDBC. Old school but still cool!
17. Xavier Padro's written a nice post on how to test WebFlow 2 flows with inheritance.
18. The fpqqchao blog has a nice post on using Spring's RoutingDataSource. The post is in Chinese, however, so have your Google Translate (or equivalent) plugin's handy!
19. Mashooq Badar has put together a nice post on building a master/worker architecture with Spring Integration.
20. Also, due to some issues with audio/video rendering, we've released a remastered recording of a November webinar: Data Access with Spring -- Getting the most out of JPA, JDBC and REST
21. Scott Andrews' epic talk from SpringOne2GX 2012 - Architecture of a Modern Web App - is now available online on InfoQ. Don't miss this month webinar (above) for an updated talk.
22. Ben Hale gave a very well received talk on RESTful API design with Spring MVC at SpringOne2GX, which you can also find online at InfoQ.
