GeekDinner Johannesburg

We had our second Johannesburg GeekDinner yesterday. We're keeping it small until we build a dedicated team/community, so it was more of a GeekLunch. Unfortunately, I missed Yusuf's talk, on why CSS is rubbish, due to a mistimed afternoon nap, but Tristan's on per-user app DBs for scalability was certainly an interesting challenge to the status quo, and his knowledge certainly carried him through his last minute volunteering. I did some live demoing of 0wning a browser with XSS Proxy. We got some serious geek all over the place, which was great, and I think this will grow into something good. Shehnaaz's hand made (from scratch) pizza's were amazing, and she was a gracious host along with Yusuf. The next one has been planned, but we're keeping it invite only until we have it more stable, thanks to nVent for volunteering.
