Sep 22 7:00 PM	CSS Frameworks- Blueprint , 960 Grid, Yahoo Grids and more? 15 attended (est.) – 4.506 A systematic approach to codifying design parts and layout with a complete CSS to simplify rapid prototyping and finishing touches? What's not to like???? To appease the graphics folks (a little bit) we are going to look at 960 Grid and Blueprint, both of which are CSS frameworks. In this Meetup, I'd like you to bring your laptops, because we will actually code up some of the examples as exercises. The frameworks are like Othello, moments to learn years to master, so don't worry about your programming skills. If you are a user of either system, or have good CSS experience, please let me know so that we can be sure to tap your experience during the Meetup. Blueprint: http://www.blueprintcss.org/ 960 Grid: http://960.gs/ Yahoo Grids: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/grids/	Caroline Collective Houston, TX, 77004 29.729484,-95.383289	24 Yes 12 Maybe

This will be great for hard core developers and laymen alike, as you will learn some of the how and lot of the what can be done and really what the Internet will look like in the near future. This is one of the most exciting Meetups I think this group has had!! The entrance to the parking garage is on Del Monte Dr. near the Beltway 8 feeder. Guests will need to sign in at the security desk and I’ll have a stamp to validate their parking so they don’t have to pay when they leave.	This location is no longer available	73 Yes 0 Maybe
