And, one of my personal favorite quotes from the panel that I thought worthwhile to share"If you're not considering mobile on your site in 2010, what's wrong with you?". The presenters were able to show how they're working to "change the world through design" one day at a time.

Think of December 2010 as your golden opportunity. Although this reason doesn’t make us feel as warm and fuzzy inside as the prior, when it comes down to it people want to get their donations in for 2010 so they can get the tax break. It looks like this: Present. Don’t wait until next year. So, ask them. Opportunity.
