There is a great talk that Nicholas Zakas gave (former front-end engineer for Yahoo and contributor to YUI). He talks about decoupling the front-end into a modular web application utilizing the event-driven architecture pattern.

There is an great AngularJs focus group that meets every month. They have had some great presentations while providing free pizza to those who are present. I recommend anyone getting their hands dirty with AngularJS, attend this focus group.
