“In this workshop, Steve Souders explains the rules he developed as part of YSlow, as well as new best practices he’s developed while at Google. With those in mind, he analyzes several of today’s popular websites to see how well they follow, or don’t follow, this advice. As part of this analysis attendees will learn how to use tools like Firebug, YSlow, HttpWatch, Hammerhead, Cuzillion, and Smush.it.”
