Stanford Online: High Performance Web Sites [video]

"Install Microsoft Silverlight"

I think I'll stay without the secret knowledge of High Performance Web Sites.

Hes given two talks at google on the subject that the course covers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTHvs3V8DBA and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRUqVyP27Hw

Silverlight or not I think most of will live without all the secret knowledge contained in those videos unless we want to fork out a $600 tuition fee to see more than three of them according to: http://www.stevesouders.com/blog/2009/05/20/stanford-videos-...

Also, has this guy heard of firebug?

Who, Steve Souders? Hes on the working group and has been for a verry long time: http://getfirebug.com/workingGroup/

He also built YSlow...

The book (O'Reilly's High Performance Web Sites: Essential Knowledge for Front-End Engineers): http://www.amazon.com/High-Performance-Web-Sites-Essential/d...

And his upcoming book (O'Reilly's Even Faster Web Sites: Performance Best Practices for Web Developers): http://www.amazon.com/Even-Faster-Web-Sites-Performance/dp/0...

It's spelled "Stanford", no D.

Fixed. Posted in a hurry + cannot spell = embarrassing mistake :)
