I would love it if you also to comment on how you feel about experiential sessions, like we do in our workshops and conferences, like PSL and AYE.Gerald M.

Regarding NIH...Hi Jose -- thanks for the comments.<br /><br />Regarding NIH, I was referring to the product/tool/technology covered in the presentation -- I wanted to be convinced that the presenter didn't just 'roll their own' as so many do, especially in the Python community.<br /><br />As far as code walkthroughs go, I think it's good to have some in-depth slides and get the pulse of the audience. If they are interested, show them, if not, they can see them after your talk.Grig Gheorghiuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17863511617654196370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9238405.post-14121403987392669612011-03-17T08:46:36.252-07:002011-03-17T08:46:36.252-07:00These are some pretty good guidelines to go by.

I wasn't sure what you meant by NIH syndrome at first, but after reading about it on Wikipedia I can say I've never seen that problem with presentations. I have, however, experienced it in the workplace. <br /><br />The only point I wish you would've covered was code walk throughs. Do you think it's better to do the demo and tell people to download the code later? Or is it better to stop every now and then to explain some of the more complicated parts?Jose Galdamezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00682880911458465778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9238405.post-38580901010757084792011-03-16T13:56:47.468-07:002011-03-16T13:56:47.468-07:00Matt - you got it ;-)Matt - you got it ;-)Grig Gheorghiuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17863511617654196370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9238405.post-27223960599276489412011-03-16T13:54:49.562-07:002011-03-16T13:54:49.562-07:00Is there a reason this is showing up after PyCon ?...Is there a reason this is showing up after PyCon ? :)matt harrisonhttp://panela.blog-city.com/noreply@blogger.com
