Hello.

I am Paul Kinlan.

A Developer Advocate for Chrome and the Open Web at Google.

Chrome Dev Summit 2021

Paul Kinlan

I'm starting to think about Chrome Dev Summit 2022. Top of mind is everyone's safety with the ongoing pandemic and how to make the event as inclusive as possible.

Also, more content alongside talks, please! And maybe shorter, more impactful online presentations?
