Anyone in Austin next Wednesday and Thursday?

In exactly a week I'll be flying to Austin for my first SxSW. My session JavaScript: the Big Picture will take place on Monday at 4:05pm in Ballroom F (whatever that may be; I assume a gentle SxSW employee will patiently explain where to find it). See this entry for details on my panel.

I'll be in Austin a few days before SxSW starts, and I'll leave a few days after it ends. Which brings me to my main point: will anyone be in Austin on Wednesday 7th and/or Thursday 8th and feel like meeting up? If you do, please leave a comment below. I'll be staying in the Driskill Hotel (not sure if that matters, but anyway).

Recently Google released the very handy Webmaster Tools app, with which you can see how many links to pages there are, plus quite a few other goodies. This allowed me to create a Top Ten list of the most popular pages on this site, as measured by incoming links.

Importing the site navigation

I added a new page about importing the site navigation on all QuirksMode.org pages. The page is mostly about why I do what I do, and less about the how (besides, technically it's quite easy). The site navigation is a perfect example of what Jeremy calls Hijax.

I also put my trusty XMLHttpRequest functions online for future reference. No explanations on this page; I already treated them in section 10A of the book.

SxSW and the fun in web development

I suddenly realised I hadn't yet officially announced that my presentation "JavaScript: the Big Picture" has been accepted by SxSW. It will run on Monday 12th of March in the afternoon, and it will be a 25 minute power session. I already wrote about the topics I want to treat. Right now I plan to talk for a maximum of 10 minutes, after which a discussion is supposed to fill the remaining 15 minutes. My plans may change, though.
