This document summarizes Christopher Cochran's presentation on going mobile from 960 pixels to 320 pixels. Some key points are that mobile is convenient, personal, natural and cool. Mobile websites should be fast loading in 3 seconds or less, precise by understanding the user, and adaptive through progressive enhancement and feature detection. The presentation provides recommendations on how to design for mobile, including making content the priority, using responsive design, and leveraging tools like Modernizr.
