On success and web standards (Christian Heilmann captured in Paris)

Developer evangelist Christian Heilmann was captured in Paris late last year, humoring a post-prandial crowd of European web developers and sharing the wisdom of web standards, as well as a humorous bit on how (and when) to make the international sign for "bullsh*t." He also discusses the benefits of web standards and the value of taking the long view, for increasing the resilience, flexibility, and maintainability of web projects.

You can watch the video, thanks to the generous permission of the Paris Web 2007 conference organizers.
