Standardistas Presents…
We’re delighted to announce the first of an ongoing series of boutique events under the banner ‘Standardistas Presents…’.
Our vision for these events is to run a series of exclusive events - intimate events even - with limited numbers, designed to share knowledge, but also to offer an opportunity to meet like-minded designers and developers and network.
Our first event, a full day workshop, will run on Saturday, 27 March, 2010 at the Art College, Belfast. We’ve built (pardon the pun) the content for the day on the workshop we ran at last year’s Build Conference, titled ‘Beginning HTML5 and CSS3’.
Places are limited, and a number have already been snapped up by participants as far afield as Belgium and Portadown. We have, however, five free places to give away.
To be in with a chance of winning, simply follow us on Twitter and tell us why you’d like to attend in 140 characters or fewer.
