            <dd>
                <p>Last night I had the opportunity to speak at the Web Tech 
                November Meetup in Baltimore about jQuery.  I focused mainly 
                on traversing since I believe once you fully grasp some of 
                the built in jQuery traversing methods you can do just about 
                anything using jQuery and do it easily.</p>

                ones like what you get from a lawyer or a realestate again to
                point out important things - off the side of your page so that
                your users can click, bring that tab into view to see what 
                important information you want [...]</p>

                <p>In a follow up to my Better jQuery Code #1 post I will be
                writing about some other small items that I have found to make

                Chaining is one of the most beautiful and time save pieces of

                and just never know what to really say until I saw Marc 
                Grabanski's 5 Tips for Better jQuery Code.  Although I have 
                tips, I don't think I have any that are Earth shattering or ones
