2013 Converge Florida

Really excited to be attending ConvergeFL this year. This conference is three days of immersive web design & development workshops and inspiring keynote style talks. There is a great list of speakers this year and are my takeaways.

Responsive Slider Menu is a jQuery menu which creates drawer-style navigation on your desktop site and collapses easily to mobile.
