Symposium Hall, Edinburgh
Enjoy a day of the web's best speakers discussing the future of information online.
The Mobile Perspective
Web browsers on mobile phones? What's wrong with the good old desktop browser? The web is evolving in so many ways, not only with different types of application and technology, but also with different types of browsing device. The web is becoming more and more integral to people's lives, so they want to access it wherever they are. This means added challenges for web developers, because the playing field is not level across mobile devices by any means.
In this talk, Chris Mills explores the issues present with making your web sites work on "the mobile web", and what solutions are currently available.
