FlashForward Preso Posted
I just got home from Flash Forward late last night - checked my inbox and I must have got somewhere around 20 emails about my presentation.
I have posted my presentation - both the keynote and the pdf. Feel free to use it/abuse it, pass it on. You can download the presentation here.
Thanks for all the great feedback - its really nice to hear that people enjoyed the presentation. At one point I was laughing so hard I was unsure I was going to be able to continue...
Big thanks to Brandon Hall for being my tech guy that entire day, fixing my Britney mic and for generally just putting up with me. Its an honour and a pleasure to share the stage with the people that I did - many people who have inspired me over the years - damn I remember
Finally - give your feedback about FlashForward to the organizers - speakers you liked, about the format , etc. It only helps to make the conference better.

All the folks in my group loved your presentation. Your comments about how poor planning consumes time (and weekends) and limits the role of developers to implementation hit home for us. I recapped your thoughts and other themes that I heard at the conference here:

Thanks.

Hey Stacey,
Excellent presentation! I didn't attend it but I checked the files and I wished I was there to see it. I have another wish though, I hope it'll be possible for you to publish a video or audio of your presentation.
Good work!
Regards.

We were there and loved your presentation. Great messages, timing, and some good humor.
Sadly, none of what could be called our "project management" team was there to see it... but we still got a lot of good laughs. :)

My favorite presentation of the conference. Content that almost every developer can directly relate to delivered with great showmanship. The PDF is great, but (if at all possible) an audio/video clip would fully do it justice!

Hi Stacey - it was great to chat to you after the friday show - I'm the brit that randomly ended up at your dinner table.
I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation and am happy to see that I can download it too. Cheers!
