“Performance is ultimately about respect, “ Austin said. “Is your Website fast? What do 'fast' and 'slow' really mean? Can a site ever be too fast? How can you tell? User's perceptions of your site matter as much as quantitative measurements, and designing your site to seem fast is crucial.”
During his presentation, Austin will explore the psychology of the user experience, especially on Mobile devices. Attendees will gain access to real-world solutions to optimize their websites in ways that make sense to the people that matter - the end users.
