Recent articles: A/B Testing and Improving Page Speed

The biggest news of my career: I’ve been published on A List Apart: A Primer on A/B Testing. My favorite part of being published on ALA is the illustration, at right, by Kevin Cornell.

A/B tests have been invaluable during my work at Dyn. I couldn’t have written the article without help from a number of people at Dyn, most notably my former manager Alex Sergeyev and resident data analyst Raj Vysetty. So far the article seems to be getting some great feedback.

I also authored a post, originally as a draft for ALA and now published on the Dyn blog, on improving page load time and measuring the effects of different kinds of HTML, CSS, and image cleaning. I did a lot of data analysis and am happy with being able to prove that keeping your code clean will earn you page load brownie points.

Last but not least is my recent post on cranberry oat cereal bars with raspberry marshmallows that were made with Sweet Lydia’s marshmallows. Om nom nom.
