Environments for Humans Hosts 2nd OnLine, Live CSS Summit

2nd Annual CSS Summit

Christopher Schmitt, Austin WordPress Community member, and founder of Environments for Humans, hosted some of the Web’s most notable experts in Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) for an all-new, all-day online conference, the Second Annual CSS Summit on July 28th from 9am to 5pm (CT).

Christopher has developed an affordable, convenient way to deliver amazing training to the WordPress community. Environments For Humans produces online conferences that bring subject matter experts to your desktop for a great low price – $149.00 for the full day — SWEET!

We can’t share all the take-away goodies here, because we want Christopher’s training company to be successful and offer more great sessions later this year. However, I can share some link love to give you an idea about how much value Environments for Humans delivers for such a reasonable ticket price.

This link for CSS Summit itself is: http://environmentsforhumans.com/2010/css-summit/
This site includes links to each presenter’s website/blog. Some may put their presentations on their blogs.
