Probably the best slides I have ever worked on & we didn’t even use them.
Wow – you know, that really covered it. Kinda. Actually, the presentation was nothing like that. The “LSW is people,” slide is good, but wheres Rick Astley? And, you need to have two screens of chat streaming on either side to really capture the feel of the thing.
aryq, we did the slides the week before the presentation, so we didn’t anticipate the Rickroll (though we probably should have!).
