Crafting Design and Development Standards

Filed under Evangelization, Management, News and Events, Resources, Style Guide

I was invited to present my Beyond Web Standards talk at J. Boye Philadelphia and, since I get bored with the same old slides, I redid the talk, yet again.

This latest version of the talk covered The Circle of Standards but, as a bonus, I also added on my notes about creating a style guide.

You can download the slides here. If you’d be interested in a podcast of the talk, please leave a comment!
