This session, although not really horrible, was my least favorite of the day, and really the entire conference.
There were two presentations. In the first presentation, the two presenters switched back and forth and highlighted features of the book Don't Make Me Think by Steve Krug and talked about how the principles of Krug's book should be applied to mobile websites. The points were all valid, but the presentation felt like something anyone who read Don't Make Me Think and then browsed the web using a cell phone would come up with.
This was followed by a presentation about making mobile websites and covered the basics of what was necessary to make mobile-friendly websites work. They suggested using the theme titled "Responsive" on WordPress and a theme called "Omega" on Drupal for good responsive design websites.
After the second presentation someone from the audience suggested that JQuery Mobile is a great tool for making mobile websites. I'm generally familiar with JQuery (although I haven't had a need to use it much...yet) but hadn't heard anything about JQuery Mobile, so that might be a good thing to check out.
