Hey Austin Javascripters, this month's meetup is gonna bring that `~*~* variety *~*~`. Here are a few talks that we've got lined up already:

* [@lawnsea][1]: TCP Trix
* [@kassandra_perch][2]: NodeBots
* [@elbenshira][3]: ClojureScript and Om
* [@WebDesserts][4]: chroma.js and color manipulation
* [@ClassicallyGeek][5] and [@pncifra][6]: Google Polymer and Web Components
* maybe [@aaronj1335][7] if there's time: If Underscore Was Written in ES6

We've still got some time though, so feel free to come with an idea, and we'll work everyone in!
