Get closer
So, the first networking event is closing in, just a few days away, and we're all looking forward to it.

My interest was caught by the work you are doing at 'Next Generation Spinners'. Are you not in some respects re-tracing there some of the ground which has already been covered by jQuery? What is that you do which is different?
