As a pre-cursor to the Yahoo! Open Hack Day, we're pleased to have a special
presentation from YDN Senior Developer, Tom Hughes-Croucher.

NOTE: RSVP is not required but please arrive early to reserve a seat.

Why is mobile different to desktop? When it comes to data there are lots of
difference such as processing and most importantly data transmission. Our
goal as developers should always be to make the fastest apps possible,
however mobile adds a lot of constraints to the platforms we are used to
developing for on the desktop. This talk will focus how you can avoid the
problems that network latency creates by being smart with your server
implementation.

Tom Hughes-Croucher is an Evangelist and Senior Developer in Yahoo's Open
Strategy Group, focusing on Yahoos Web Services and Cloud Platform. Tom has
contributed to a number of Web standards for the World Wide Web Consortium
(W3C) and the British Standards Institute (BSI). Previously he helped build
the online music stores for some of the UK's largest brands including Tesco,
Three Telecom and Channel 4.
