This article has been given a more permanent home on my blog. Also, since it was first written, the development of the Promises/A+ specification has made the original emphasis on Promises/A seem somewhat outdated.

You're Missing the Point of Promises

Promises are a software abstraction that makes working with asynchronous operations much more pleasant. In the most basic definition, your code will move from continuation-passing style:

getTweetsFor("domenic", function (err, results) {
 // the rest of your code goes here.

Nowadays, being really busy has become something worth bragging about or something you can't escape. 
You will probably even blame your commitments for stealing your time.

But is it truly impossible for you to make time for your "dream project"? 
Are you busy or is it avoidance?

Really. Look at your schedule; and put in a little "dream" time. 
Everything else would benefit more if you spend some time caring for your passions ;)
