Today, a web page can be delivered to desktop computers, televisions, or handheld devices like tablets or phones. While we have started to embrace techniques that help ensure that our web sites look good across that spectrum of devices we've forgotten that we need to make sure that our web sites also perform well across that same spectrum. More and more of our users are shifting their Internet usage to these more varied platforms and connection speeds with some moving entirely to mobile Internet. We need to understand how our development choices affect how well our sites behave so we can make sure that our content is usable to anyone, anywhere and on any device. Dave will provide technical tips and examples for improving the web performance of your web sites and applications. The talk will cover server-side as well as front-end web performance optimization techniques. This presentation builds upon Dave's "Optimization for Mobile" chapter in Smashing Magazine's "The Mobile Book."
