The struggle for web standards - my presentation for Coder’s Saturday in Montreal
This is the presentation I have just given at the Coder’s Saturday in Montreal, Canada. The theme revolves around the adoption of standards and why this is important not only in a technological sense but much more necessary to appear as a professional developer. Most standards we talk about are really recommendations and we need to find convincing arguments why people should follow them or even why they are important to us.

From the presentation: Things not to do: sell skills and things to do: sell technologies.
Huh? I shouldn't sell what I'm good at en valued for? But I should sell JavaScript?
I don't understand.

This reminds me of an article I read recently over at Joel on Software...

I think it's an interesting and pragmatic point of view.
