Refresh Bellingham February 17, 2010

Refresh is a community of designers and developers working to refresh the creative, technical, and professional culture of New Media endeavors in Bellingham. Promoting design, technology, usability, and standards, Refresh Bellingham is part of the Refreshing Cities movement.

Refresh Bellingham is proud to host Adrian Pike. Adrian will be talking about the fundamentals of internet architecture. Front-end designers and developers have always maintained (at best) an uneasy truce with the servers and infrastructure that allow them to display their work to an appreciative world. For many, anything beyond the FTP window is black magic. Find out how the heck DNS really works and what exactly you're paying GoDaddy for, why servers are different from each other and what to look for, and why your website is slow and how to make it faster.
