Session Abstract

It's not news that we need to design for mobile first, but how does mobile first design look when users are dealing with intermittent or non-existent connections? How can we provide elegant and seamless experiences on a low speed connection where data costs are high? And how can our products be just as usable for folks navigating in their second or third language?

In this talk, Rachel will give context around users in Emerging Markets - why we need to consider these users and what kinds of limitations they face. She'll talk about research conducted for Google Chrome, share some of the team's early insights, and show features designed to solve these problems.
