Online conferences and meetups are really becoming a thing. I presented yesterday at An Event Apart, and the slides are below. Later this week I'll be presenting at the Fronteers online meetup, which is open to everyone whether you are a Fronteers member or not. Come along!

Lots of interesting stuff to read in the newsletter today, I hope you find something useful there.
