Talk comments

A well presented talk by a confident speaker.

A good speaker but felt the talk lacked valuable content.

Talk of the day for me, solidified some things I didn't realise I knew, and introduced new patterns too.

Well presented talk with some good ideas to take away.

A couple of technical issues but it did not affect the quality of the talk too adversely.

Great talk, thought provoking and professionally given despite technical issues early on

As someone who hasn't used Memcached or APC I found this very helpful. I will definitely be making use of Memcached from now on.

I think he explained the 'biggest smallest reusable data' principle really well too, with some good practical examples from working on Digg.

I'm looking forwards to applying the things I learnt from this talk!

Very interesting talk with a lot of practical examples of the types of problems Facebook have encountered in the past. The advice on creating APIs that were safe by default and simpler for developers to use was really useful, and went beyond the normal list of vulnerability types that makes up many security talks.
