[Webpub] tomorrow: John Resig on campus

[Jonathan Slate]

Thanks for hosting this event, the demo was pretty cool, and I've been playing around some with jQuery in my limited free time, trying to create a AJAX jukebox app w/ PHP, jQuery, and MPD, an open source music player demon. jQuery is pretty cool, though admittedly I'm not finding it *quite* as easy as he made it look but then he seemed like a pretty bright guy. :) Are other people using or planing on using jQuery? Has ayone used the UI plugins? In my office we are using YUI which as mostly worked out pretty well. I wonder how much value there is in using both or if it is better to pick one and stick w/ it...

The other thing I picked up from the demo was Firebug, which I must say is freakin' awesome.
