Sculpin looks like a great tool. Great intro to static site generators and Sculpin. I will be using it in the near future.

Great intro to OAuth. Great pacing, good coverage of the basics of OAuth, and Matt did a great job at presenting the info.

Great intro to Sculpin.

Only recommendation: speak a little louder.

It was a lot to cover in a short time period. It was hard for me to follow as more of a novice and although I understood that there were many situations where you could use these new tools, it was too fast-paced for me to fully grasp why they would be the superior choice over named functions. The main advantages I was able to understand were to decrease resource use (because the functions are transitory), increasing code cohesion (because the capabilities are defined close to where they are used), and decreased namespace pollution. Those didn't seem like compelling reasons for what seems less natural to my less experienced mind.

Good intro to Sculpin. Helpful to see some of the ways people are using the tool. Excellent job pointing to others in the community who are moving the project forward. Giving credit away is important.

A lot of Good, concise, info on closures, lambdas, and anonymous functions.

Worth expanding it for a longer talk
