The web is supposed to be the great democratiser, but what happens if you don't have a web browser? Anybody should be able to access any web content, service or application using any type of connected device from anywhere at any time, but the current reality is far from this. In this talk, join Den Odell, Head of Web Development at AKQA, as he envisions a "One Web" future, the ultimate form of Responsive Design where sites truly adapt to their users' devices, needs and context, a future where user interfaces reach beyond the browser to create an optimal experience for everyone, all built with W3C open standards.

Pro JavaScript RIA Techniques: Best Practices, Performance, and PresentationDear Reader,
Many people are familiar with rich Internet applications (RIAs), those web sites that blur the line between desktop software and the web browser. Applications like webmail clients, photo editors, and social networking sites cross this boundary. They feature intuitive, user-friendly interfaces, without the need for page refreshes or other interruptions to the end user’s experience. It is widely regarded that this type of web site will continue to grow in popularity.
I wrote this book to help web developers with some existing JavaScript skills suc-cessfully create their own professional, visually rich, dynamic, and performance-tuned RIAs. And following the guidelines in this book, you’ll be safe in the knowledge that your code is built according to best practices, adhering to web standards and accessibility guidelines.
In this book, I will show you how best to build a solid, maintainable foundation of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code for your RIAs, together with the Ajax techniques needed to provide the dynamic communication between the browser and web server behind the scenes. I will describe the performance limitations you may run into when building your web applications and how best to overcome these. And I’ll give you some tips for making your user interfaces feel more responsive, even when you can’t get around the performance limitations.
You also will learn how to improve your RIA user interfaces by adding typo-graphical headings using custom fonts, multimedia playback components, customized form controls, and dynamic charting capabilities. Additionally, I will demonstrate how to continue running your web applications when the connection to the server is broken, how to use Ajax to read hidden data stored within binary files, and how to ensure the highest level of accessibility within your JavaScript web applications.

“You can get the data on some historical event,
or hear an illustrated lecture on any subject
you wish. Or you can hold an electronic
conference with any group of people scattered
all over the world, seeing each other as
you talk.”

small company can look as large as a big
