“We don’t have a UX Team. If the problem 
with your service is that the servers are slow 
and the UX Team can’t change that, then 
they aren’t in control of the user experience 
and they shouldn’t be called the user 
experience team.”

the web is 
Evolving
fluid grid

flexible images

media queries
Size isn’t everything 
(RWD > media queries > widths)
“used to query whether scripting languages, such as JavaScript, are supported on the

Scripting 
current document” 
pointer 
hover 
light-level 
“used to query about the presence and accuracy of a pointing device such as a mouse” 
“used to query the user’s ability to hover over elements on the page”

The only way 
is ethics
“A Dark Pattern is a type of user interface 
that appears to have been carefully crafted 
to trick users into doing things, such as 
buying insurance with their purchase or 
signing up for recurring bills.” 
- darkpatterns.org
“ It’s not who I am underneath, but 
what I do that defines me. ” 
- Batman
Change is hard 
(but it’s also good)

Be excellent 
To each other
the web is 
our responsibility
