Use addon: ReactLink
1. include the script:
script src="https://fb.me/react-with-addons-0.13.3.js"></script>
2. Add mixin:
mixins: [React.addons.LinkedStateMixin],
3. Use valueLink={this.linkState('name')} instead of 'ref' and 'onChange':
<input valueLink={this.linkState('name')} type="text" placeholder="Name" />
