Responsive Web Design in the Prairies

I had the pleasure to do another talk at Prairie Dev Con West in Calgary about Responsive Web Design. I need to say that this topic is one of my preferred. I’m really an HTML5 enthusiast and the principle behind this brilliant idea of Ethan Marcotte is just awesome.

As I promised to my lovely attendees, you didn’t have to take notes of the resources, here is the presentation I put on my SlideShare account:
