#sotb18 — Public Fediverse posts

Taking lots of inspiration from @adactio's #SOTB18 talk (which he has thoughtfully posted online https://adactio.com/articles/14321) not only because of what he's saying but because of how he's saying it. If there's one rule for impactful public speaking, it's rhetoric, rhetoric, rhetoric! It's inspired me to dust off my Farnsworth's "Classical English Rhetoric" so be warned.

Tips on increasing empathy in how we build web from @[email protected]:
1. Simplify technology - use the least tech possible
2. Build with semantics
3. Design and develop progressively
4. Make your site available for 100% of users
5. Test test test (including on screen readers)

Between @[email protected] talking about SGML and @[email protected] referencing Nature, I'm having some serious flashbacks here at #SOTB18. (I got my start in this industry working with Nature and other scientific journals to put them online.) 🎶Memories🎶

Pretty sure @[email protected] is building up to web standards being a collective hallucination at #SOTB18.

Going a little retro and “Surfing the Net” now with @[email protected] at #SOTB18.

The unuterably awesome Ruth John @[email protected] now on stage at State of the Browser amazing us with audio & visuals on the web and telling us about web workers and worklets. #SOTB18

Now @[email protected] on stage at State of the Browser #SOTB18 to spread the word about the #ImmersiveWeb / #WebXR.

Some great wisdom from @[email protected] at State of the Browser on permissions (particularly notification permissions but applicable to any web permissions): always ask permissions *in context*! Blind permission requests is an antipattern. #SOTB18

Now @[email protected] presenting on @[email protected] at State of the Browser #SOTB18. The rise of the ad & tracker blocker is a response to the explosion of invasive ad tech.
