The Web As It Should Be

Today, we’re in a situation where there are several companies all pushing the innovation envelope. Everyone’s working away on new technologies to create ever more engaging and useful Web applications. Everything’s constantly moving. And yet we’ve also reached a point, particularly with the advent of HTML5, where all these different browsers are truly standards-based. There is now far more that unites us than separates us, and that’s hugely important and beneficial for developers, as they try to create more compelling user experiences.

In this 50 minute session we’ll look at the evolution of the browser and what opportunities will be available for developers over the next few years.
