The why of libraries and the YUI - a talk at GeekUp Leeds, UK

It is great to see when a group of developers and designers comes together to celebrate their area as much as learning from each other and about what they do. One of these examples is GeekUp in the North of the UK, and I went up there for 3 hours (with a 2.5 hour train ride one-way from London) to talk about the why of JavaScript libraries and the YUI in detail. The slides of the half-hour presentation are available on slideshare:

The GeekUp people also filmed the presentation and the long Q&A session, so make sure you check their site for information about that.

Hi Christian, the video was recorded by NorthCast and will be up at http://www.NorthCast.co.uk within a few days, (we are sort of seperate from the geekup organisers but still part of the overall community)
