MidwestPHP Conference
2 - 3 Mar 2013 at University of Minnesota's Continuing Education and Conference Center

Joel,

Nice Work. Thanks for not using verbal crutches and for speaking like you were comfortable. You didn't rush and spent just enough time on each topic/concept to be useful but not overwhelming (being the first of many technical sessions). The pace was dead on for a larger group.

If i had to critique anything it'd be that in many cases your slides contained the words you used almost verbatim. This isn't bad per se, but I always enjoy talks where the speaker interacts with their slides instead of reading them or at the very least SEEMS to be reading from them.

All in all, great job! Great information that can't be reiterated enough. I really appreciate the extra mile getting the coupon code from PragProg.

Thanks again.

Great insights ! Definitely somethings to think about and try

very helpful

Cool insights, couple of humorous lines to wake us up. Great start!

Great opening session for PHP Midwest.

I feel like it was a great intro talk to the conference
