A Thought on Geek Presentations

Long-time readers will know that I have attended several No Fluff, Just Stuff conferences. I also attend the St Louis Java SIG (though I missed this month).

One thought has recurred to me during NFJS 07. What I remember most vividly from a given geek session is not a new language feature, Powerpoint slide, or snazzy demo: I remember ideas. I think that's an object lesson for all of us as speakers (and as writers when we comment our code).
