PHP North West 2011

Great keynote, very inspiring. A good example of how a keynote should be done and I really liked your presentation style. Wish I could be that good one day...
Can't wait to see the recording so I can watch it again!

I don't know what I expected of the talk, but this wasn't it. It took only a few minutes before you lost my attention and somehow you didn't get it back. Too bad because it might have been worth it.

Very interesting talk and for me one of the best of the conference. You kept the attention of the audience and knew your stuff. Everything was well explained and easy to follow. I will look into Sonar soon because I didn't know about it and it seems very interesting. And the book you mentioned is on my wish list. one point of advice: do one slide with credits for all the things you got from the book. It seemed that everything slide almost was from the book which doesn't make a good impression. Otherwiser, well done!

I really liked this talk, it was funny but also very informative. There was a lot to cover so it was a shame there wasn't a bit more time but maybe some of the content could have been stripped out to make sure it all fitted into an hour.
A great talk though, very well presented, that I got a lot out of. Thank you!

An interesting talk, although a little short. I had hoped for a bit more detail also, and to see other ways people have approached url design, such as url sentences (http://shiflett.org/blog/2010/may/url-sentences). Otherwise a decent and well presented talk.

This was an interesting talk, though I didn't expect there to be quite such a focus on wordpress and its plugins, for something entitled "Anti CMS". It's always interesting to hear how others have overcome various problems though, and Mike's an interesting speaker.

Very interesting to speak with a lot of interesting people. Really liked the party, mostly for a great oppertunity to socialize.

Good session, with a lot of passion. Sometimes almost a bit too much for me as I was quite tired at the moment (little sleep last days and almost at the end of day). However, I usually have difficulties to stay focused during sessions (always been so, since first day att school..), so the fact that I managed to stay pretty focused during entire session should be considered as a great plus.

Shame that the code examples were difficult to read. Having an example of a small site was good but maybe less time on the downloading and initial set up and more of the results of using Symfony2 would have been good.

Enjoyed this talk, good to hear from someone who had put Varnish to use on a heavy traffic site with some impressive stats showing the difference it made. Good explanation of the various caching headers and how they work both with and without Varnish in the mix.
