Breaking HTML5 limits on mobile JavaScript
With iOS 5, Android 4 and IE9 we can now push the limits of JavaScript and HTML5 APIs on mobile. Hardware access, performance timing and other APIs are out there. However, not everything is similar to desktop: performance, background code and events needs a review. Hybrid apps such as PhoneGap apps also add problems. This session will give you an overview of what you need to know for mobile web.

Your Script Just Killed My Site
by Steve Souder
Hiccup. We all get them occasionally. So does the Web. When an Internet or server hiccup causes a script, stylesheet, or font file to timeout, the result can be devastating - the containing web page is likely to appear completely white for a minute or more. What's worse - your monitors are unlikely to register this outage. Don't worry - this probably won't happen to your website. Or will it?

Improving JavaScript
JavaScript is well on its way to become the dominant general-purpose
programming language. The present looks good and the future looks even
better: Many of the things that people currently complain about will
be fixed by the next version of ECMAScript (code-named
ECMAScript.next). We’ll also look at steps to improve JavaScript after
ECMAScript.next, some of which are not language-related. -
