Keynote: Once Upon a Time on the Web
Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.
It's also a story of missed deadlines, half-baked standards, last-minute decisions, ridiculous business models, and some of the stupidest ideas anybody has ever had in the history of technology. Some of them are nothing more now than an amusing footnote in history... some of them we're still living with, and working around, every single day. And it could easily have been so very, very different.
Join Dylan Beattie for an offbeat and irreverent journey back to the earliest days of the digital frontier, as we look at the ideas and innovations that have shaped the modern web... and then fast-forward to an alternate 2017, where you are all using Netscape Composer to create rich online experiences on our WebTVs, Microsoft Office is a Java applet, CueCats are more popular than fidget-spinners, and the really cool kids are using MSN to hand-code custom avatars in VRML.
