San Diego PHP October Meetup - VIM
17 Oct 2012 at AutoFusion

Really good talk. I liked the audience participation where every section turned into a discussion on the best way to approach different problems and the various solutions people have used. I also like how there was a quick description of various commands followed by a demo of how they worked.

Typically I think one hour should be a maximum for a talk like this, but even after 1.5 hours I was still finding the talk interesting.

I think the most value was gained by those that have used VIM for a while and found a couple new commands or tricks that they were unaware of.

As more of a VIM beginner, much of the keyboard shortcuts went into my brain and then quickly right out again. But, when I do start using VIM I will have a better understanding of what is possible and how to use it to get the most benefit from it.

I had my laptop with me, which was useful to test out the commands as they were being talked about.

Loved the talk. Learned a bunch of new things that i wasn't aware of. I'd suggest everyone who uses vim to take a look and see if theres anything to learn, and everyone who uses an IDE, to look to see why to use VIM

Very enjoyable and informative discussion.

Interesting talk. I still haven't used VIM but at least now I know some of the basics of mouse-free code editing.

Great talk. It was very helpful for me, but I'm not sure the talk really helped anyone who wasn't already familiar with vim and the command line.
