Great presentation! One measure of a presentation is how many books, people and solutions I look up afterward. This certainly ranks high on that criterion. In addition the presentation introduced some good frames for future decisions (politeness vs. privacy, etc.)
Matt and Tom were great presenters and made the topic very interesting. I didn't get a lot of relevant information to my projects, but I did get a big list of cool sites and apps to check out.
excellent team gave a very visual *and* thought-provoking presentation in an exceptionally clever manner. would love to read / see more presentations from either or both of these guys!
Good presenters and a good approach to explore how to handle a sticky problem. I appreciate that they listed sources for more exploration of the subject.
are you going to make your slides or video of your presentation available online? it was a lot of good info to digest in such a short period of time :)
Great job guys! definitely got me thinking.
