Issue 326

Tomorrow is State of the Browser in London, where I will be speaking about CSS Layout, it will be my first in-person event for 18 months or so. Very odd!

In other speaking news, registrations are open for the Chrome Dev Summit workshops, office hours, and learning lounges. Request an invite here. I am running two CSS Layout workshops, Adam Argyle is running a workshop on User adaptive interfaces. You can also post questions for the Chrome Dev Summit AMA with senior members of the Chrome team.
