Year round learning for product, design and engineering professionals

CSS3 Reloaded – John Allsopp at Melbourne WSG meetup – July 20

If you’re in Melbourne this July 20 there’s a whole bunch of really good reasons to go along to the WSG meeting at Loop Bar at 6.30pm.

Firstly, along with SitePoint, Web Directions is sponsoring, so, drinks and food are on us.

Secondly, one of the great door prizes on the night is a full ticket to Web Directions South 2009 – so make sure you bring a business card. Additionally, you’ll get access to a promo code that takes the ticket price back to just $750.

And if this isn’t enough, there’s also going to be a great presentation – CSS3 Reloaded – from Web Directions’ own John Allsopp.

CSS 3 seems to have been coming for years—but is there anything to show for it yet? Or is it all “pie in the sky”? Hold onto your seats (or beers at least!). In this presentation, John Allsopp, who’s been knee-deep in CSS for more than 12 years, shows us what’s been going on behind the scenes with CSS 3—not in the spec, but in the real world. In this talk, John will show you all kinds of CSS effects you can use to progressively enhance your sites for a new generation of browsers, like Safari 4, Firefox 3.5 and Opera 10, while still delivering a great experience to users of other browsers.
