We’re presenting on CSS to techMaine (MESDA)
October 7th, 2008
Come on down to techMaine‘s Web Designers Users Group meeting October 20 @ 6pm to hear Jen and me sound off on CSS and why it’s a smart way to build Web sites. We’re trying to decide how much advanced CSS sorcery people want to see, so help us frame the discussion through your comments.
From the program:
Learn how to build better Web sites through the effective use of CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). When combined with that other acronym (HTML), CSS can help you create sites that download much more quickly, are less costly to maintain, are more accessible, are more search engine friendly and are more flexibly structured. This session will give you a brief overview of the basics, a look at practical approaches to solving challenging design and layout issues as well as some advanced razzle-dazzle (that’s the technical term for it).
About the Speakers: Rob Landry and Jennifer Ecker of Pemaquid Communications, LLC have their black belts in CSS and Web Standards-based design techniques. Pemaquid was one of the first Web design studios in Maine to use CSS exclusively for layout. Pemaquid Clients include Camden National Corporation, Oakhurst Dairy and the Maine Lobster Festival.
Door Prize: Registered attendees will be entered in a door prize drawing for a copy of the Sitepoint book, The Art and Science of CSS, by Cameron Adams et al., courtesy of O’Reilly Books. You must register and attend to be in the drawing.
