Sessions at Web 2.0 Expo 2011 SF about Mobile on Tuesday 29th March

Reza and Joel will be giving a live demonstration on how to use Expression Blend and Visual Studio to develop a non-trivial Windows Phone application.

We will discuss 3 topics near and dear to many: mobile apps; social apps; and helping ensure wild success. Join us to learn how Thuzi has created social apps that can run on phone devices (iPhone, Android, Windows Phone,) iPad/tablets, and tap cloud computing to handle rapid growth.

Have you ever surfed the web on a smartphone, when all of a sudden you hit a page that was so ill-suited to mobile viewing--so slow, so awkward, so inoperable--that you couldn't complete your visit? Don't let your site break like that. In this session, you'll learn what separates a great mobile site from a dismal one, and how to transform your fixed web presence into a great mobile experience.

Mobile phone technologies are evolving at an accelerated pace. With the introduction of touch screen devices the mobile user experience was dramatically changed. Madhava Enros will talk about the future of the mobile UI and discusses the challenges of designing a browser for the small screen.

PlayFirst chief executive Mari Baker will highlight how a leading single-player game company effectively transitioned to emerging growth platforms like mobile and social.
