Speakers gist

Would you like to speak on the night? You’ll have five minutes, that’s 300 seconds, to tell us about something… a project, a library, a technique, a story, or anything else on JavaScript and its techy friends (HTML, CSS, SVG, animated GIFs), or the wider world of web.

Please leave a comment below (you can use Markdown if you want) and include:

• Your name
• Your main website, if you have one
• Twitter username, if you have one
• A sentence or two about your talk
• Any relevant links
