More information exists now than ever before. 72 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute. 10% of all photos ever taken were taken last year. 700,000 apps in the App Store. The list goes on. We're being inundated with more information than ever, but there's still only 24 hours in a day. With more stuff out there, people are forced to focus on what truly matters to them, and their tolerance of unnecessary noise is rapidly diminishing.

This talk is from the Ready to Inspire Conference which was held on 11th December 2012 at the "Stadsgehoorzaal" in Leiden, The Netherlands
This talk was surprisingly given an the first Smashing Conference. Andy Clarke did not plan to talk at all and wrote this session just the day before he was on stage. A nice talk on the integration of clients into your projects. Andy has written a nice blog post about his talk at Smashing Conference (bynd.it/andyatsmashingconf) and an article on this subject short after Smashing Conference in the Smashing Magazine (bynd.it/andyatsmashingmag).

(During the last 5 to 6 minutes of this talk we had a dropout on the long shot camera which also has the good audio channel. Therefore we had to take the audio for the last bit of the room mic from the close-up cam. Sorry for this!)
This is a talk by Jeremy Keith. Given at the very first Smashing Conference 2012 in Freiburg, Germany.

With the explosion of Web-enabled devices of all shapes and sizes, the practice of Web design and development seems more complex than ever. But if we can learn to see below this overwhelming surface to the underlying Web beneath, we can learn to make sites not for specific devices but for the people using them. This talk will demonstrate how tried and tested principles like progressive enhancement are more important than ever. By embracing the spirit of the Web, you can ensure that your websites are backwards-compatible and future-friendly.
