Dutch Mobile Conference 2013
6 - 8 Jun 2013
at Amsterdam RAI
Talk comments
45 minutes in a few words:
"You need to test, we started an open device lab"
Would've been a lot more interesting if the talk was about good methods for testing, how to narrow down errors, etcetera.
How can you give 5 stars if nothing in the demo worked? Of course it sucks if things don't work and I feel sorry about that, but I think the talk wasn't prepared well.
So this talk:
* Had me entertained.
* Taught me some tools that I had never even heard about.
* Made me a better informed person.
* Had me inspired to try it all out.
* Gave me the "Aha, of course, DOH feeling"
So, all in all, even tho the live demos completely failed, that added some extra humour to the talk and kept me really well engaged into the rest of the talk.
The speaker managed to explain what the tools were all about without even making the demo work, and I think that's a proof of how good she knows the topic.
All in all: Well done and thank you!
I thought this was a great opener to the conference. It covered topics that are currently of interest.
The code snippets were very clear and easy to follow. The Trial tool is brilliant.
Speaker delivery style could be improved by stepping away from the keyboard.
Nice talk that really gave a good insight in how Titanium + Alloy works.
A clear and organized talk. Good speaker. Lots of basic information about titanium, but it could have used a bit more detail and examples.
I wasn't fermiliar with titanium, and the most important thing for me is: how would this work out in real life and how does it measure up to the XCode experience. I didn't get answers to these questions.
Also, I can't believe he can not name 1 single downside of titanium...
In spite of the computer issues, she did a great job describing what the demos would have displayed. I learned a lot, and was impressed by her ability to continue a talk in spite of the obvious browser issues. I am not going to put down a star because a browser tab crashes. rather, give a +1 for the professionalism of enduring thru so many technical failures.
The clown car technique was fascinating. I am looking forward to playing with it.
