CSS3 - nytt utseende på den moderna webben (CSS3 - new style for the modern web)
by Olle Olsson
Linköping, Sweden
Relevant technology areas: Browsers and Other Agents and Web Design and Applications.
(see abstract)
Abstract:CSS3 är en av huvudkomponenterna i den framväxande nya webbplattformen, där den andra komponenten är HTML5. Målet med CSS3 är att kunna ge fullgott stöd för att skapa attraktivt och användbart webbinnehål, drivet dels av nya och starka behov från användarsidan, och dels av de nya teknologiska möjligheter som finns i webbplattformen. Bland punkterna att ta upp är: hur specifikationerna struktureras; hur arbetet drivs fram stegvis; vilka områden inom formatering där CSS3 går utöver CSS1 och CSS2; relation till andra webbteknologier med formateringsstöd; hur CSS3 är tänkt att användas; formatering av webbinnehåll resp webbtillämpningar; vanliga webben och den mobila webben; framväxande CSS3-stöd i webbläsare; andra teknologier som konkurrent eller komplement; .. - 2011-09-18 (18 SEP)

by Shawn Henry
Austin, TX, USA
Relevant technology area: Web Design and Applications.
(see abstract)
Abstract:Accessibility is essential for developers and organizations who want to create high quality websites and web tools, and not exclude people from using your online resources. Web accessibility is getting more attention at universities and colleges recently because of lawsuits. But that's just one aspect. In this session we'll look at the more exciting reasons to embrace accessibility, and how to reap the technical and financial benefits of accessibility. With engaging stories and illustrations, Shawn will offer a different approach to accessibility. Instead of focusing on the stick, go for the delicious carrots motivating accessibility. - 2011-10-26 (26 OCT)

Web content vs Web applications - do we want information or programs?
by Olle Olsson
Aarhus, Denmark
(see abstract)
Abstract:When the web was born, it was all about contents. "Content is king" was a popular slogan. And this did push the web and its supporting technology to be the main way of delivering contents and getting access to it in the networked society. In recent years we are talking more and more about web applications. While web content is mainly about the information delivered across the net, web applications is about tasks and processing that the web can offer to the user. We saw applications on the servers, now we see them on the clients. So what does this mean for the web, and what does it mean for providers that offer their added-value over the web? Is everything just enriched contents? Or is everything information-rich applications? How do we understand what the web will be in some years time? The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) is developing standardised technologies that will serve both the information-centric web and the application-centric web. This presentation explores the space of requirements and needs, and how a toolbox of technologies can support both views of the web, in a harmonious way. - 2011-11-11 (11 NOV)
