[September] At From The Front 2013 Bruce Lawson talked about How To Destroy The Web. A sarcastic view at how we build the web today. If you're a web professional, you're not going to learn anything here - but it's entertaining none the less. (Sadly From The Front did not (yet?) make any videos available, so here's Bruce giving the same talk at FOWA London.)

[October] At Fronteers 2013 Bruce Lawson talked about What The Web Needs Next. In this talk you'll find a perspective on DRM you probably haven't thought about - at least I hadn't.

[October] At Fronteers 2013 Domenic Denicola talked about The State Of JavaScript.

Talk on Lanyrd


[October] At Fronteers 2013 Marcos Caceres explained the state of Responsive Images. I don't care too much for responsive images as a thing, but in this talk Marcos managed to explain a couple of things surrounding the standardization process.

[October] At Border:None Jeremy Keith talked about the Power Of Simplicity.

Talk on Lanyrd

Talk on Lanyrd


[November] At Full Frontal 2013 Kenneth Auchenberg introduced us to RemodeDebug, his initiative to make developer tools work cross-browser. I liked this talk because I had always been annoyed by the situation, but never figured we (the developer world) could do something about it.

Talk on Lanyrd
