Recently I’ve really been enjoying this video series by Google Developers Live. It’s called Make Web Magic, and it is a series of interviews with talented HTML5 developers who have released great work (usually on the Chrome Experiments site). To date there are three interviews on there. The host is Paul Irish (someone who knows what they are talking about) and it is a great way to pick up tips and tricks used by the experts. Check out the videos …

Last month there was a conference held in Zurich, Switzerland at the Institute of Cartography and Geoinformation called The Graphical Web. It used to be called SVG Open, but this time the name change is to reflect the wider graphical web technologies (SVG, Canvas, CSS transitions, CSS transforms, tooling etc).
You can see what the schedule was here. One of my favourite speakers was there, Joshua Davis.
The main reason for this blog post is to highlight the fact that they recorded all the sessions and have put them online for free. There are some really interesting sessions here. Check them out below …
Here is a full list of the sessions …
Enjoy!

Joseph Labrecque from the University of Denver has posted his session on Flash and Google Analytics that he presented at the FITC Unconference at Adobe MAX 2009. His example uses the gaforflash API which I hadn’t heard of before. It’s pretty interesting stuff and is definatley something that could be useful in the future. His presentation seems fairly clear to understand and thorough.
