[Websg Meetup] Soliciting Presentations for Meetup #2

[Cheah Chu Yeow]

I missed the 1st WebSG meetup - still can't get over it.

Anyway, what I'd like to hear:
- Rails tips, Rails plugin development (rather advanced topics for the
WS crowd though - probably not appropriate
- A summary of the "main" CSS hacks I should still be using.
- How web designers code CSS efficiently (I always waste lots of time
on getting things looking just right, especially when there are
floating divs - anything tips on doing CSS productively are highly
requested).

What I could share:
- Firefox stuff, related to web development (or not). I'm severely
lacking on Firefox "tips" nowadays though compared to the old days.
Maybe extensions web developers and techies like us would dig.

Cheers,
Chu Yeow
