MobileMonday Toronto
Google Presents Insights on Mobile Devices
When: April 05, 2010 - 6:00pm - 9:00pm
Where: MaRS Centre Auditorium,
101 College Street - Toronto
Today, we carry around in our pockets devices that easily outstrip the capabilities of a desktop computer at the time that Google was founded: 600Mhz CPUs, 256MB of RAM, and with graphics engines capable of rendering 7 million 3-D triangles per second.In addition to the powerful hardware, we're seeing an active marketplace of very different, very polished smartphones, including Apple's iPhone, consumer-oriented BlackBerrys, and Google's own Android platform.
Across all these devices and operating systems, the common element is the desire of the users to search and browse the web, and reasonably standards-compliant browsers are in the market or being built for every significant device. The browser, coupled with increasingly powerful capabilities from the HTML5 draft specification, has become a great platform for delivering software to non-technical users who want their phones to "just work" with a minimum of difficulty.
We'll explore what capabilities are commonplace and discuss where the boundaries are for building mobile web applications, with demos as motivational examples.
Guest Speakers:
Alex Nicolaou, Engineering Manager.
Punit Soni, Product Manager.
This is a free event, but registration is required.
