July ‘10 Refresh: Same old, same old

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

We don’t have much in the way of interest in any particular topics this month so I’m just planning a simple meeting to discuss whatever is on someone’s mind. I’d be happy to talk through some of the topics previously discussed like Better Understanding of TypeKit, @font-face, and the move towards accessible web font usage [...]

Wednesday, June 9th, 2010

Let’s meet and talk about web-based and native smart phone application design and development. With Apple releasing the goods on iOS4 and new devices hitting the market soon, it’s a good time to talk about what’s coming and what people are excited about.

May ‘10 Refresh: Transcendent CSS & Housekeeping

Monday, May 10th, 2010

Having not heard much in the way of topics or discussion for this month’s Refresh I figured we’d congregate at the Taproom and brainstorm some topics and ideas and get a bit more organized about the next few months. I think this will improve the group, potentially bring out more people and make organization and [...]

Sunday, July 5th, 2009

At the last Refresh Meeting on June 30th I talked pretty extensively to a small handful of people at the BBC Taproom downtown about my journeys to An Event Apart in Boston in late June and also a tiny bit about Facebook Connect. It was really nice and I want to extend a thanks to [...]

June ‘09 Refresh: An Event Apart Boston

Monday, June 29th, 2009

It’s been a busy month and some of the resources that have been helping me organize have been out of commission this month and so here we stand. It’s now June 29th and I still don’t have a venue to meet at to give any kind of presentation and most people aren’t even aware that [...]
