O’Reilly Velocity Conference – Santa Clara
My favorite front-end conference has always been O'Reilly's Velocity Conference because the conference series has focused on one of the most undervalued parts of client side coding: speed.

Resize an Animated GIF
Animated GIFs are images but you can't really handle them link other types of images, like PNGs or JPEGs or even WebPs. GIFs are kind of a video file, because they have frames, but there's no real control over how they play or loop. My favorite image...
