This is a mix of ideas stemming from my own research and thinking, as well as a number of ideas that came about through some submissions I received and discussion after the last event. I figured I'd go ahead and start the thread, and see how people are feeling about this list. This really is about the group and it's members, so any additional thoughts or possible ideas? We're all ears and eyes. We'd love to hear 'em. Thanks a ton, folks!</p> <p><strong>Topic List (thus far):</strong><br /> Legal Issues for Early Stage Startups/Freelancers<br /> Successful Design in the Music/Movies/Comics/Literature Web Worlds<br /> Video On The Web<br /> Revealing Design Treasures from Amazon (this was a talk given at a Philly Refresh meetup by Jared Spool that might be interesting if we can bring him in - <a href="http://www.uie.com/about/)" rel="nofollow">http://www.uie.com/about/)</a><br /> Design Trends (or the occasional lack-there-of) in Political/Government Websites<br /> Better Understanding of TypeKit, @font-face, and the move towards accessible web font usage<br /> How You Can Use Twitter<br /> Sass and Compass<br /> Flexible Web Templates for Various Content (from writing more flexible CSS to generating different on the server based on content properties)<br /> Responsive Web Design (see: <a href="http://www.alistapart.com/articles/responsive-web-design/)" rel="nofollow">http://www.alistapart.com/articles/responsive-web-design/)</a><br /> Design/Function Critique: Mobile Web/Apps vs. Desktop Environment vs. Print</p> <p>Also, a couple of other ideas that we can do on a regular/semi-regular basis:<br /> Monthly Site Critique/Discussion<br /> Possible Lunch/Breakfast Meet-ups </p> http://www.refreshlouisville.org/forums/topic.php?id=108#post-437 Thu, 03 Jun 2010 00:27:03 +0000 Todd Budnikas 437@http://www.refreshlouisville.org/forums/ <p>We need to lock down a topic or presenter for Refresh this month. There have been some topics thrown around both in the <a href="http://www.refreshlouisville.org/forums/topic.php?id=106">forums</a> and at the last meeting. If you are interested in presenting on one of the topics you or someone else recommended, please let us know by posting here. If not, we at least need some topics for discussion. </p> http://www.refreshlouisville.org/forums/topic.php?id=106#post-433 Fri, 07 May 2010 16:56:04 +0000 Todd Budnikas 433@http://www.refreshlouisville.org/forums/ <p>Planning our upcoming meeting for Tuesday May 18th. If you have any desire to speak, present or have any idea for topics or discussions please post here. If nobody speaks up for presenting we'll likely just have a roundtable-like discussion as we did in February and pick a few topics. </p> http://www.refreshlouisville.org/forums/topic.php?id=105#post-430 Tue, 04 May 2010 12:30:48 +0000 davidyeiser 430@http://www.refreshlouisville.org/forums/ <p>I've uploaded the slides for the presentation I gave last month at SlideShare: <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/davidyeiser/once-source-to-rule-them-all" rel="nofollow">http://www.slideshare.net/davidyeiser/once-source-to-rule-them-all</a></p> <p>You can download the full PDF there too. </p> http://www.refreshlouisville.org/forums/topic.php?id=103#post-428 Wed, 21 Apr 2010 13:48:54 +0000 Todd Budnikas 428@http://www.refreshlouisville.org/forums/ <p>I promised a few people a few things last night mainly in the form of links so here are hopefully all of the things I mentioned:</p> <p><strong>Online/Cloud backup solutions</strong></p> <ul> <li><a href="http://jungledisk.com">Jungledisk</a> - backup solution I'm currently using</li> <li><a href="http://mozy.com/">Mozy</a></li> <li><a href="http://backblaze.com">Backblaze</a></li> </ul> <p><strong>Other Random Links</strong></p> <ul> <li><a href="http://chrisglass.com/album/">Chris Glass' Photography</a></li> <li><a href="http://mobilewebbook.com/">Cameron Moll's Mobile Web Design Book</a></li> </ul> <p>If I've forgotten anything, let me know here and I'll post it.

I'm thinking of nothing too formal as we ease back in, but maybe at least some structured discussions. Here's some off-the-top-of-my-head ideas in order of what I'd like to talk/learn about:</p> <ol> <li>Maintaining a blog and how to get started. Pitfalls and best practices</li> <li>SXSW recommendations and past experiences (I'm heading this year and have never been.</li> <li>^^ in addition, maybe a discussion of conferences, past experiences, recommendations, etc.</li> <li>HTML5 and how you're using it</li> <li>CSS3 and how you're using it. Successes and limitations</li> <li>What you learned in 2009</li> </ol> <p>Chime in and/or post yours! </p> http://www.refreshlouisville.org/forums/topic.php?id=82#post-365 Mon, 14 Sep 2009 20:27:25 +0000 Bryan V. 365@http://www.refreshlouisville.org/forums/ <p>Anyone want to talk about Adobe AIR or Flash/ActionScript in general in October? </p> <p>Maybe an intro to SEO?</p> <p>Definitely open to suggestions, and I'd like to keep having these meetings though we haven't had anything going on this month or last. </p> http://www.refreshlouisville.org/forums/topic.php?id=81#post-363 Mon, 17 Aug 2009 19:10:44 +0000 Todd Budnikas 363@http://www.refreshlouisville.org/forums/ <p>If people are interested in getting together, please chime in. I would guess just gathering someplace social as in previous months to have a few drinks, chat about recent things and projects, and perhaps propose and organize next months meeting and see if there could be some presentations to be had. </p> <p>If I hear from at least a few folks I'll organize something for next week. </p>
