Webstandards China Presentation

Updated April 15, 2009 @ 12:01 pm

The Webstandards China slides are pretty basic, and the presentation mostly I did to see who is interested and to get some criticism, which I did.

In the end, after some great conversation, I’m not convinced this is a high priority project right now (at least for my time output). It is possible that a large company taking this on directly, and influencing with success might be better. The way guanxi works in China right now is interesting, and must be understood to take on some type of advocacy effort. Thus, I think a bit more discussion and review is in order to make this into something fabulous (or not).
