ParisWeb2007: La grève
![Page 3: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
However, it had positive results, too.
![Page 4: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

I am also sorry that my French hasn’t improved
much.
![Page 6: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The web
doesn’t
help there.
![Page 7: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Enough of these shenanigans.
![Page 8: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Right now we are not working at peak efficiency.
![Page 9: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
And that is *bleep*ing dangerous.
![Page 10: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The market is collapsing.
![Page 11: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Everybody is cutting cost.
![Page 12: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
We’re all going to die!
![Page 13: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Culture was the seed of proliferationBut it has gotten melded into an inharmonic wholeConsciousness has plagued us and we can not shake it:Though we think we're in control:Questions that besiege us in lifeAre testament of our helplessnessThere's no vestige of a beginning,No prospect of an endWhen we all disintegrate it will all happen again
Time is so rock solid in the minds of the hordes but they can't:Explain why it should slip away:History and future are the comforts ofOur curiosity but here we are:Rooted in the present day:
If you came to conquer you'll be king for a dayBut you too will deteriorate and quickly fade awayAnd believe these words you hearWhen you think your path is clear
We have no controlWe do not understand
You have no controlYou are not in
command!
![Page 14: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
So yeah, we might lose our jobs.
![Page 15: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
But even more importantly...
![Page 16: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
People that promise fast solutions that punish users
will get our contracts.
![Page 17: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
This happened after the first .com crash.
(“I remember when this was all fields”)
![Page 18: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
And lead to a massive market of massive systems...
![Page 19: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
...that cost a massive amount of money...
![Page 20: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
... and need a massive amount of training...
![Page 21: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
...and create suboptimal
results.
![Page 22: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
So, given that we are the good guys with the master
plan.
![Page 23: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
What can we do?
![Page 24: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Use what we have
![Page 25: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Nobody cares about our technologies.
![Page 26: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
They do care about the systems we build though.
![Page 27: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Our focus should be on collecting information about the success of our products...
![Page 28: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
...built with the “best practices” we promote...
![Page 29: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
... explained in human (and monetary) terms.
![Page 30: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
I remember two great examples.
![Page 31: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
In 2003, Mike Davidson saved ESPN.com 2TB traffic a day by
switching to CSS:http://www.mikeindustries.com/blog/archive/
2003/06/espn-interview
(Thanks to James Craig for this link)
![Page 32: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
At @media 2005 Douglas Bowman showed the
redesign of several sites from tables to CSS.
![Page 33: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Explaining the amount of traffic saved by switching to a
CSS based layout.
![Page 34: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
He could have shown the numbers.
![Page 35: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Instead he showed upper management how many CDs
could be filled with the information they saved each
month.
![Page 36: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

![Page 37: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
What is 329 terabytes - 465000 CDs
![Page 38: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
These were all sites that were built from scratch.
![Page 39: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
That is something that happens less and less.
![Page 40: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Let’s try to work with CMS vendors to create cleaner, leaner and meaner sites.
![Page 41: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Preferably open source ones.
![Page 42: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
How awesome would it be to have customers ask for some
open source CMS...
![Page 43: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
...because so many cool sites have been built with it?
![Page 44: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
We need more easy to grasp explanations built on best
practices.
![Page 45: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
I’ve created one yesterday:
![Page 46: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

![Page 47: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Which brings me to a second, very important point.
![Page 48: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Use what has already been done for you.
![Page 49: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Right now, we are all thinking about saving time and
money.
![Page 50: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
The easiest way to do this is to re-use and recycle.
![Page 51: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
If you know where to look, you can build an impressive web product using only third
party code.
![Page 52: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Code that has been tested for you with users, on different browsers and platforms and
released for free.
![Page 53: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Why don’t we do that?
![Page 54: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Because we want to do it ourselves!
![Page 55: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Every *beep*ing time, over and over again.
![Page 56: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
![Page 57: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
I don’t know where this insecurity or lack of trust
comes from.
![Page 58: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
But if I learnt one thing in my years as a developer...
![Page 59: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
...then it is that working
together brings much
better results.
![Page 60: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Big words, but what is there that can be used that saves us
money?
![Page 61: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Exhibit A:
Design Patterns
![Page 62: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
On the Yahoo Developer Network you can find
solutions to tasks that users need to fulfill on web sites.
![Page 63: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
These are based on research with real users and are live
and cross-referenced on Yahoo! sites.
![Page 64: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)

This can be a base of your own interface and
information architecture.
![Page 67: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
They even come with stencils!
![Page 68: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)

Exhibit B:
CSS Frameworks
![Page 71: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Basing your design and layout on an existing CSS
framework means you can build them very fast.
![Page 72: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
It also means they work across different browsers and
will work for browsers to come.
![Page 73: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
In terms of maintenance all you need to do is to update
one CSS file.
![Page 74: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)

Exhibit D:
Complex Page Widgets

What if HTML is not rich enough for your clients?
![Page 87: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
Almost all *free* and *big* JavaScript libraries come
with widgets that work and are proven in the market.

Exhibit E:
Specialist Search
![Page 91: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
What if a client asks you to build a specialist search?
![Page 92: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
You could buy databases and build an interface and get
servers to host and index the search...
![Page 93: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
Or you could use BOSS.

How about some success stories and ideas?
![Page 97: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
Antonia Hyde of United Response needed to build and
accessible video player.
![Page 98: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
She had several offers from agencies – all of them very
pricey.
![Page 99: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
So she complained about it at a conference and asked where are good, cheap
developers?
![Page 100: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)
That was me.
![Page 101: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/101.jpg)
Using a free API...
![Page 102: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
Using a free API.

...and some hours of work...
![Page 104: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
...I built Easy YouTube.

This inspired others to play with the API.
![Page 107: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/107.jpg)

And again others to build a company on it.

And we used the learnings to make our systems better for
everyone.
![Page 111: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)

Another friend of mine works for a University.
![Page 113: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/113.jpg)
His problem is that all videos of theirs need conversion and
captioning.
![Page 114: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/114.jpg)
On a large scale – and they have no people or servers.
![Page 115: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/115.jpg)
So what can be done?
![Page 117: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/117.jpg)

What about captioning?
![Page 120: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/120.jpg)
CastingWords must be one heck of a big company to
have this turnaround time, right?
![Page 121: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/121.jpg)
No, but they are clever!

We can be as clever.
![Page 124: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/124.jpg)
So don’t waste your time listening to people who talk
theoretically about the cloud and the future.
LeWeb?
![Page 125: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/125.jpg)
But instead use it now and look what is out there before
building it yourself.
![Page 126: Working In The Now - Paris Web](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042521/555a7ba1d8b42abb628b47c6/html5/thumbnails/126.jpg)
If we show people that we work smooth and save
money.

We can get through this crisis *and* change things for the
better.
