A super-quick "start off with code, then here is how package into a phar" example would be a nice addition to the slide deck. Overall a wery informative presentation. I'd love to hear more about what approaches people are taking to debug phar packaged code since manually dropping a print statement in seems difficult/impossible?

Good to see the new features of HTML5 presented alongside a history of "new shiny" on the web and how those features have been used in good and bad ways. I would like to have seen information on even more of the new HTML5 features that affect front-end design, like form types. Took Kevin a little while to warm up, but that was understandable.

Neal is clearly smart and knows his PHP. It did feel like two talks and the php://memory stuff is what brought me and there was no real example of how and how you should use that.

Great job. Good discussion of some advanced use of Javascript.

I'm given to understand that this was Kevin's first conference talk. He got over his earlu nerves and warmed up as the talk proceeded. I think it was a good mix of theory on design, bit o' history, and short code examples for an embedded software, backend PHP developer like myself.

Made me itching to get in the design seat. I'll be working more heavily on HTML5 (et al.) in the near future, and this gave me a lot of great insight and ideas to take forward.

I think the worst part was timing, as I had already attended the all-day tutorial on HTML5 (et al.) and another session on similar topics, so for me there was a lot of overlap in the actual code samples. However, the code wasn't the point of the talk, the concepts of when, where, why and how were the key points and ideas behid this talk. And none of the other sessions hit on those aspects.

Plus, Doctor Who!!!!

Keith is a fantastic, energetic, and passionate speaker. This talk is very inspiring for any project or start-up, but it is really geared excellently and specifically towards new ideas/projects & start-ups.

If you see this session on the roster of your next conference, you should definitely attend.

He explained the basics of cryptography is a very easy to understand manner. His match examples were easy to follow, and it was a bit refreshing having a theory talk instead of a talk just about different algorithms you can use.

Ed's JS talks are always a pleasure, this was a great example of using Backbone.js to sit on top of a basic PHP API and how to construct it.

Intensly fast and fun.

I admit i don t fallow evrything, but I catch the major point.

Nice to meet you !
