Why Local Embeddable?
Placing content in content is valuable
Great context exists that can be reused and
made local
Embedding is on the rise
Embedding works for video, audio, slides,
images, lists, docs and social

Copyright Boomylabs 2011-2013
Why Responsive?
Experience Matter
Mobile, Tablets & Desktop

Space matters
Space is like Brevity & Simplicity. Guard it Well

We don’t like to scroll in 2 dimensions
Most embeddable content is not smartly
responsive
Copyright Boomylabs 2011-2013
When Local Fails?
Local Fails when you think sprint not marathon
Local demands teamwork
Local demand a long term mindset
Too much automation
Too much duplication
Too much junk (not enough tidying)
