    Google Developer Day Sydney - Aaron Boodman

    Google Gears: Building Better AJAX applications
    Presented by Aaron Boodman

    AJAX applications are at the core of web development, providing both opportunities and challenges. We’ll be discussing some of the ways we can address those challenges in this session. More details will be provided at Developer Day.

    Aaron Boodman started life as a musician, a mistake he rectified early to the delight of his teachers and dormmates. Suddenly finding himself with more time on his hands, he taught himself to program and began experimenting with and writing about the collection of technologies that became known as “AJAX” many years later. His work from 2000-2001 continues to be referenced and reused today in modern JavaScript toolkits. More recently, he is the creator of Greasemonkey, a popular browser extension that allows people to “mash up” websites using JavaScript. At Google he works on experimental web technology, and occasionally lends a hand on UI for products like Gmail, Reader, and Blogger.

    Faster HTML and CSS: Layout Engine Internals for Web Developers

    Posted by admin on July 15th, 2009 and filed under web developers | 25 Comments »

    Google Tech Talks
    November 12, 2008

    ABSTRACT

    How fast Web pages load and how fast they change dynamically depends on both the Web page and the browser it’s running in. Browser makers put significant effort into making their browsers faster, but there are also things that Web page authors can do to make their pages more responsive.

    I plan to talk about HTML, CSS, and the DOM in Mozilla, from the DOM tree and CSS style sheets through to displaying pixels on the screen. In particular, what do Mozilla-based browsers spend the time doing when they’re displaying a Web page? Which parts of this work are redone when the page is changed by script? And what implications does this have for how authors can make their pages faster, and for how authors can test the performance of their pages?

    Speaker: David Baron
    David is a software engineer at Mozilla Corporation, where he works on Mozilla’s implementations of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and layout algorithms (computing the positions of objects), fixing memory leaks, and other things. He has been working on Mozilla since 1998, and is a member of the W3C CSS working group.

    Enhancing Web 2.0 Accessibility Via AxsJAX: A Tutorial at Google - Charles L….

    Posted by admin on July 13th, 2009 and filed under web developers | 23 Comments »

    Google Tech Talks
    July 15, 2008

    ABSTRACT

    Google is the Web’s premier creator of user-friendly Web 2.0 applications, and we have long viewed it as part of our mission to do for users in the long tail (AKA users with special needs) what we’ve achieved for the mainstream user see this Google I/O talk entitled Design Patterns for Enhanced Accessibility for background. Accessibility 2.0 is now a hot topic on the Web and we would like to move from a world where AJAX applications were a straight No-No with respect to blind users to a world where these same technologies are used to enhance their usability for everyone.

    Google-AxsJAX is an Open Source framework for injecting usability enhancements into Web 2.0 applications. In this talk, Charles Chen and T. V. Raman will give a hands-on tutorial on using AxsJAX. The tutorial will cover the following:

    A brief introduction to the additional opcodes introduced by W3C ARIA to the embly language of the Web (AKA HTML+JavaScript).

    AxsJAX library abstractions built on the above that help Web developers generate relevant feedback via the user’s adaptive technology of choice.

    Steps in creating fluent eyes-free interaction to Web applications, including enabling rapid access to parts of a complex Web page.

    The tutorial will provide a step-by-step walk through in defining AxsJAX enhancements to a Web page including:

    An overview of the developer tools we use.

    Discovering pain-points in Web interaction and designing improvements iteratively.

    And time permitting, we might even demonstrate how Raman now makes up for all the time he save thanks to an efficient eyes-free auditory user interface by playing JawBreaker and reading XKCD via their AxsJAXed versions.

    Note that writing AxsJAX enhancements to Web applications can help you win cool swag and bragging rights! The goal of this hands-on tutorial is to help you get there faster!

    Speaker: T. V. Raman
    T. V. Raman works on auditory interfaces and Web applications at Google.

    Speaker: Charles L. Chen
    Charles L. Chen is the author of Fire Vox — http://www.clcworld.net — an Open Source extension to Firefox that turns Firefox into a talking Web browser.
