Fast and Furious: The Psychology of Web Performance

People don’t like to wait. It’s been proven numerous times that slow websites irritate us. We know that for users to have an enjoyable user experience, a website has to load between 1-2 seconds, but why do we need it to load quickly? In this talk, I want to explore the psychology of speed and performance and share why this is equally important as knowing what performance is and the critical metrics to consider.
