Last year, millions of web pages suddenly got 4 times faster. The Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) Project scales the best practices collected by the web performance community to a wide range of content websites and combines it with content caching and embedding technology that enables instant rendering for web content. With 8+ months of AMP being used by consumers and about a year after AMP was open sourced, this presentation will look at lesson learned for performance optimization at web scale and at what lies ahead for the AMP project.

The goal was to develop a mobile-only experience for millennial and younger audiences. Chat and messaging apps are the most popular category of apps in these age groups. Sanoma Media wanted to build on this. One of the objectives was to build an innovative revenue model based on coupons and events around community by building on positive results from a year-long experiment in delivering news over Whatsapp. Since that experiment, Sanomat Media have moved on from WhatsApp and created their own “chat app” that delivers news in a chat-like interface. — "Nyt Chat" won Gold at the Global Media Awards 2016 in the cateogry 'Best Use of Mobile'.
