It’s been a busy week in Brighton. Tantek was in town for a few days, which is always a recipe for enjoyable shenanigans.

The latter half of the week has been a whirlwind of different events. There was a Skillswap on Wednesday and on Thursday, I gave a talk at the Async meet-up, which was quite productive. It gave me a chance to marshall some of my thoughts on responsive enhancement.

The week finished with Layer Tennis. I was honoured—and somewhat intimidated—to be asked to provide the commentary for the Moss vs. Whalen match. Holy crap! Those guys are talented. I mean, I knew that anyway but to see them produce the goods under such a tight deadline was quite something.

Meanwhile, I just blathered some words into a textarea. When it was all done, I read back what I had written and it’s actually not that bad:

0. There Will Be Blood
1. Pukeworthy
2. Plastered
3. Bacon Nation
4. Zoom In. Now Enhance.
5. It Ain’t Meat, Babe
6. Longpork Is For Closers
7. Bass. How Low Can You Go?
8. Dead Rising
9. Troll Man
10. Craven Applause

It was a somewhat stressful exercise in writing on demand, but it was a fun way to finish up the week.

Now, however, I must pack a bag and fly to San Diego. No rest for the wicked
