Web Developer Chat: Håkon Wium Lie

, , , ,

Alright folks, I don't think I have to say a lot about this one. He proposed CSS. He's been one of the major proponents of the ACID2 test. He's currently working to get Opera on the little green machine.

So please join us for what will be one of the coolest chats we've had in a long time when we welcome Mr. (technically Dr.) Håkon Wium Lie. He'll take questions on any of his many passions: CSS, ACID2 (or 3), microformats, the One Laptop Per Child project, Web standards.

But we'll have a special time this week: Wednesday from 5 to 6 PM CET. We hope you can join us over on #webapps.

Those laptops for 100 bucks... I'm unsure of them. They're cheap, granted; but they don't do much, do they? Disposable laptops ahoy.

Although, I dont know much about them. I've only heard of them because of watching DiggNation.

By the way, I always struggle with CET time. That's the same timezone as GMT, right?

But we have cheaper beer. I heard to get a cheap drink in Norway you have to go to where the sailors hang out. :|

I would really have liked to make it, but the time coincided with my commute home!

Anyway, it certainly covered a lot of ground and made a great read. Thanks for the chatlogs, guys.

Fun to hear the discussions about the Audio() object as well!
