PubSub with requirejs & backbone

pubsub_with_requirejs_backbone.js

// PubSub impl. with require.js & backbone.js 

// events.js
define(['underscore', 'backbone'], function (_, Backbone) {
    'use strict';
    var events = {};
    _.extend(events, Backbone.Events);
    return events;
});

// filea.js
define(['events'], function (events) {
    'use strict';
    events.on('my:event', function (message) {
        console.log('Received message: ', message);
    });
});

// fileb.js
define(['filea', 'events'], function (filea, events) {
    'use strict';
    events.trigger('my:event', 'My Message');
});

I try to avoid globals as much as possible, so I don´t have a javascript MyAppName global in my current projects.

The application where I use this right now consists of a few modules/widgets, so i go with a naming scheme like:
shell MyWdget:Emitter:operation
For example: shell Comments:Comment:add, when a new comment has been added to the collection of the comments widget.

Whoops, this javascriptand shell things shouldn´t be there, copy & pasten errors...

This works extremely well.
