I do this by connecting zettelkasten to Miller's Law to better note taking to better thinking to managing your inevitable decline with a combination of digital and analogue tools. In the end I ask: what is to thought what literacy is to reading and writing?

I finish by showing leaders how to align their organisation so that it can go from a clear purpose to setting goals with clear metrics that drive activities that help your people grow into new leaders.

Or something you add as an afterthought to existing functionality. Instead it's a pervasive layer that affects everything. But even as social software becomes ubiquitous, its very nature is changing. Many of the old truisms are being overturned. What's replacing them? At Google, we've long believed that 'social' isn't something you go to a site to do.

These are user journeys which cross devices (imagine starting your shopping list on your home machine and finishing it on your work computer), contexts (for example desktop to mobile or app to web site) and platforms (a user with an Android phone and an iPad). I'll show you how: - embedded webviews are becoming the world's most popular browsers - what happens when you don't test your site in new contexts (such as inside apps like Google+,GMail, Facebook and Twitter) - the limits of responsive design - how to cross contexts using technologies like x-callback-url, deep links, intents and identity via social login In this talk I'll explore the problem of cross-context user journeys.

I'll also talk about the new kinds of devices that are turning up on the market, how they're using the web, how they're changing the web and what we can do about it.
