Does anyone have an opinion of the change in paradigm of webdesign and how it has gone some what broadband centric? I haven't looked into development in a while and it seems to me the penetration of broadband is where it's at a happy medium where developers are willing to sacrifice a demographic for another. Of course there are streamlined versions but not all sites have that; not that I've seen anyway.

This is hugely interesting for any froint end developer that takes their job seriously enough to care about the end user experience. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a moron.

Pretty boring indeed.

Major Irony - slow starting web sites is the topic and this is the SLOWEST starting video I have ever seen. 5 min into a 10 min video and we are finally to the point where the speaker introduces some kids at Google... no meaningful content, just palaver. I stopped this time waster at 5 min. Most any amateur does better than this.
