Kier Whitaker - The Web is all consuming
Kier Whitaker set the context for the second half of his talk by doing a lightening quick round of up of his personal history on the web, which had more than a few members of the audience reminiscing about how far we’ve come, and maybe gone backwards in some areas.
Emma Mulqueeny - The Web is in the hands of the 97ers
Emma Mulqueeny was a new name to me, and one of the good things about thi event for me was hearing from new people. Hers was a talk outlining the characteristics of people born after 1997 - (the 97ers of the title) and how the things they’ve grown up with online will shape their and our futures.
Chris Murphy - The Web is knowledge
Chris Murphy’s talk was a great way to start the conference, with some heartening stories of teaching the next generation. I particularly liked the reference to Industrical versus Agricultural models of education by Sir Ken Robinson, though when searching that, I also found an interesting rebuttal to some of his ideas.
Anna Debenham - The Web is everywhere
I was looking forward to seeing Anna speak having enjoyed her Pocket Guide on Style guides,as well her 24ways article on Jekyll. - I wasn’t disappointed - It was an intriguing journey through the weird and wonderful world of console capabilities and controllers. I found it a good wake up call to be better informed about the ways that people consume the things that we build.
