This is from 2007 so it’s interesting to see them talk about Twitter and how it’s the “new instant messaging”. Either way this is an absolutely hilarious and well-prepared presentation by two of the most notable names in web development. The hour closes with a serious summary of the impact of web 2.0, what it really means, and what direction it should go in.
Notable Quotes:
“Web 2.0 is a state of mind. It’s a zen thing. The sound of one hand clapping.”
“In this design, what’s important are the reflections; lots and lots of reflections. Everything’s wet in web 2.0 — wet floor, wet ceiling. So this is a great example of the web 2.0 design style.”
“And remember, Ajax is more than sliding, moving, and fading stuff. It’s an acronym, and that acronym stands for Accessibility Just Ain’t Xciting.”
“It’s all about community. Because none of us are as dumb as all of us.”
