At our June speaker session we have a special guest,
Nicole Sullivan (
<a href="http://twitter.com/stubbornella">@stubbornella</a>) who
will talk about CSS and how it affects Front End Performance.
Nicole's talks are always great and filled with great advice for
front-end developers and designers, starting with her advices to
designers and now with OOCSS movement. I often quote her when I
talk about the role of look & feel artists play in performance
field.
Nicole Sullivan is an Evangelist, CSS Ninja,
Front-End Performance consultant and author. She started the
<a href="http://wiki.github.com/stubbornella/oocss/">Object-Oriented
CSS</a> open source project, which answers the question: how do you
scale CSS for millions of visitors or thousands of pages? She
consulted with the W3C, Yahoo! and Facebook and helped them to
dramatically improve their CSS code. She is also the co-creator of
<a href="http://www.smushit.com/ysmush.it/">Smush.it</a>, an image
optimization service in the cloud. She is passionate about CSS, web
standards, and scalable front-end architecture for large commercial
websites. She co-authored Even Faster Websites and blogs at
