Chad McCallum on Taking Advantage of HTML5
Join us on February 26th @ Noon for Chad McCallum on Taking Advantage of HTML5!
HTML5 has been around for awhile, but there hasn't been a whole lot of websites taking advantage of it. Let's take your average traditional website and HTML5ify it - we'll show how adding features like drag & drop, geolocation, cache, workers, and more can help improve the performance and usability of your existing site.
Speaker: Chad McCallum
Chad McCallum is a Saskatchewan computer geek and ASP.NET MVP with over 8 years of .NET experience. After graduating from the Computer Systems Technology course at SIAST in Saskatoon he picked up contracting until he could pester iQmetrix to give him a job, where he's been for the last 8 years. He had a brief stint in Vancouver working on interactive retail software. Since then he's come back to Regina, SK where he started HackREGINA, a hackathon organization aimed at strengthening the developer community while coding and drinking beer. His current focus is ecommerce websites using MVC5 and JavaScript. Between board games and beer, he tries to learn a new technology every week - you can see the results on www.rtigger.com
