Hi,

I have two JavaScript talks that I have given recently that I would love to come and present to the JS user group.

First one is a JavaScript best practises - look at a bunch of JavaScript code that works but could lead to trouble and then a look at the solution (obvious example is equality vs. identity operators). Maybe it is a little to introductory for the people in the group, but putting it out there. Second one is a JavaScript toolkit talk which looks at a bunch of tools (IDE, websites, libraries) that I find awesome or at least interesting. 

So let me know if anyone is keen to hear these talks :)

I did a simple SignalR talk at our office a while back which isn't entirely Javascript, but it's semi-related if anyone is keen?  We may be able to convince Steven McD (he did the SASS talk at JSinSA) to do a talk on NodeJS.  Although I missed his Intro to NoteJS talk at our office, it seemed to be received well and he's doing a follow up (I think) in the next month.

So that's possibly another 3 talks.

I also forgot to say... I'd be interested in those talks Robert!  In fact I'd probably try get our whole team out to the first one :)

Since we had a speaker issue in the developer user group I will be presenting the toolkit talk at the developer user group next month:  http://www.meetup.com/DeveloperUG/events/65031122/ 
In addition Johann de Swardt will also be doing bootstrap :)

Still happy to do one or both topics at Joburg-JS

Hi,

Since we had a late speaker issue for the Developer user group, I'll be doing the tool kit talk next week at that:  http://www.meetup.com/DeveloperUG/events/65031122/ 

I've also posted the slides for the proven practises talk, so that may give some useful information:  http://www.slideshare.net/rmaclean/java-script-proven-practises
