How a Single-Focused Approach Delivers Results

We have become a nation addicted to the enticing and dangerously misleading drug of multitasking.  You might be hooked yourself.

The popular notion is that by doing several tasks at once we can accomplish more — but a host of neuroscientific research shows that the opposite is true.

The fact is that your brain is simply not built to multitask.

In any situation, we’re most efficient focusing on one task at a time. But with all the information and interruptions that bombard us, how is that possible?

Discover how to clear and calm your mind, arrange your schedule and environment, and gently but firmly manage the expectations of people around you so that you can accomplish a succession of tasks, one at a time — and be infinitely more productive and effective.

Webinar Objectives:

• Discover tangible tools to focus your mind and harness your potential
• Learn why multitasking is a myth — and how to singletask your way to success
• Simple methods for tackling your list of “to dos” with less effort and greater ease
• Gain practical techniques to manage your environment – including people around you
• Uncover methods to do more in less time with better results
• Apply fascinating cutting edge science to improve your relationships and quality of life

We encourage you to register even if you are unable to attend live; you’ll receive replay information following the event.

The web has grown from just representing documents into also representing rich applications.  Until recently, the web technology stack was behind this shift.

Web components are a set of new web standards to finally catch up by providing a clean way of providing new widgets on the web – and they start to become ready for prime time!

In this webcast Martin introduces the four web standards that make up web components along with live code demos, then gives a practical example and how to use and style them in a web application.

It also demos a few real-world cases of web components and concludes with a status quo overview of the standards and browser support, giving a list of potential pitfalls that I hit in the daily work with web components.

Presenter: Martin Naumann (LinkedIn profile, @g33konaut) is known as the Geekonaut, an open source contributor and web evangelist by heart from Zurich, Switzerland.  Martin has a decade of experience from the trenches of software engineering in multiple fields.  Martin is active on Github,  writes the blog Beyond Reality & Cyberspace, and posts tips to Coderwall.  Martin believes in working with bleeding edge technologies that will allow the web to prosper.
