Web 2.0(08)

TOPIC: Web 2.0(08)

The past year has been great!

Our membership has almost doubled. We have gained several sponsors. We obtained a new venue. And we have discussed several relevant topics about web design and the business of the web.

So what?s in store for us in Web 2.0(08)?

Let?s make this meeting fresh by having open discussions about your concerns for the coming year. What do you want to get out of this group? What topics would you like to be discussed? What kinds of presentations would you like to see? We can tackle some these topics on the spot.

The topic is 'Web Design'. Discuss.

Do you have a question about CSS? SEO? Web apps? AJAX? Mashups? Graphic design? Or anything else related to web design? Bring those queries as well and we can have an ?open spaces? type discussion format for this meeting.
