Today I gave a quick talk on HTML5 at the Evento Linux conference in Lisbon, Portugal. Originally I had planned for a longer keynote and when I realised I only had 20 minutes, I had to cut down a bit. Anyways, here are the slides and the audio recording of the talk:

The abbreviated presentation slides are available here

The audio recording of the talk is available on archive.org.

You can also check the slides I had to skip below:

The full length presentation slides are available here.

All in all I had a good time and hope that I inspired a few people. Once I am on a better connection I will also upload some photos and the video of Tux eating its own birthday cake, so stay tuned.

I am right now on a ridiculous schedule, so not much posting here. Check this out:

• 28-30th of September, Lisbon, Portugal – Evento Linux Keynote: “HTML5 and the challenge of open”
• 30th Sep – 3rd October, Berlin, Germany – JSConf EU “Community JS reloaded
  How to rock as a movement”
• 4th October, London, England – FOWA 2011 Keynote: Get excited and build things
• 5th – 9th October, Amsterdam, The Netherlands – Fronteers Closing talk: “The prestige of being a web developer” (plus added weekend to show the loveliest lady the town)
• 10th – 16th of October, San Francisco, USA - Paypal X innovate conference
• 19th October, London, England – HTML5 live Talk: “Rocking the boat – and causing a ripple”

Undoubtly I will meet some of you on the road, so if I am not taking part in all the shenanigans and merriment, this is the reason :)

The slides will pop up here one by one, so far I got up to Fronteers writing them.

Yesterday I was in Amsterdam to speak at the Kings of code conference. My ambitious goal was to cover the relevant parts of HTML5 and CSS3 for backend developers in 25 minutes and I think I just about managed to reach it.

The presentation slides are available here and embedded below (use cursor keys to navigate back and forth):

Overall the reaction was good, so I hope I managed to bust some myths and look forward to see what people do with the inspiration.

I am currently at the Mozilla all Hands in San Jose, California and decided to give a talk explaining a lot of open technologies to my colleagues so they can go out to conferences and get people excited about them. We have a lot of people and volunteers, and everybody should feel empowered to speak in public. A lot of times what is missing is a simple way to tell people about the things you want to cover.

To this end I put together not yet another slide deck on SlideShare, but a way to see a presentation and then pick and mix what you want to show yourself.

You can see and present the presentation here (use cursor keys to navigate the slides and press ‘N’ to show ):

The audio recording of the talk (raw, unedited) is available on archive.org.

The slides and screencasts are available on GitHub and we are also keeping a repository of the explanations and screencasts on the Mozilla Wiki.

The idea is that when you want to do a quick show and tell of new technologies you can go to the slides, uncheck the ones you don’t want to have in your presentation, hit the “start presentation” button and go for it.

Enjoy!
