dconstuct: beyond mobile, beyond web
DESCRIPTION
Native applications are a remnant of the Jurassic period of computer history. We will look back on these past 10 years as the time we finally grew out of our desktop mindset and started down the path of writing apps for an infinite number of platforms. As the cost of computation and connectivity plummets, manufacturers are going to put 'interactivity' into every device. Some of this will be trivial: my power adaptor knows it's charging history. Some of it will be control related: my television will be grand central for my smart home. But at it's heart, we'll be swimming in world where every device will have 'an app'. What will it take for us to get here, what technologies will it take to make this happen? This talk will discuss how the principles of the open web must apply not only to prototocols but to hardware as well. How can we build a 'DNS for hardware' so the menagerie of devices has a chance for working together?TRANSCRIPT

What is our perspective?
1. Apps prevent Just-in-time interaction
2. Model shift from Software to Experience
3. A discovery service breaks out of the ‘browser ghetto’ (Native + Web)
4.Everything we need lying at our feet.We are the next Apple
