Make your blog load fast and help the environment at the same time

Last week, I was chatting with @grigs saying that I was interested in him hosting a session on mobile blogging. Jason let me know that he was hot on another topic at the moment and wondered if I would let him speak on it. Not being one to pigeon hole a man for his most visible passion, I said let’s do it! Here’s a brief description from Jason Grigsby on what this week’s session will be:

There are many reasons to optimize your blog and make it load as fast as possible. You’ll use less bandwidth, save money, and make your readers happier.

But there is yet another reason to make sure you site loads as fast as possible. It is one of the easiest things you can do to reduce the energy your site uses. Unfortunately, most web sites don’t do the basic things that would make them run faster and use fewer resources.

So this week at Beer and Blog we’ll shave seconds off an example blog using simple techniques and do our little part to make our blogs greener.

I’m totally interested in how to speed up my blog, especially since I know now that it helps the environment too! Come join us to learn some ninja tricks. Also, we’ll be making a cool announcement about a sponsor that is going to pay for the first round of the next 3 Beer and Blogs after this one.

Rad shit is happening.

Ok, if you’ll be there, RSVP on Upcoming por favor.
