- 30:52 1. Tim, you're a husband and father of three, you write books, run and speak at conferences and still have great looking hair. What's the secret?
- Do you generally favour responsive image techniques that require author 'intervention' (e.g. writing or srcset style markup) or set and forget methods such as adaptive-images.com (and why)?
- 41:30 Have you seen any examples of pages using mostly CSS animation to tell a story? Also, for Tim, how do animated infographics fit into a responsive workflow?
- 48:35 Isn't display: table-cell awesome? Why don't CSS developers use it more often?
- 56:24 How do you find the people that you want to interview? The reason I ask is because on your site -- and most other design sites I've found -- never talk about or feature any black designers or developer.
