talking loud and clear...
Here are the slides from some talks that I've given over the last few years.
- Perl Is Boring
A talk I gave at YAPC::Europe 2000, based on some of the ideas from my book - Symbol::Approx::Sub
A talk I gave to london.pm in November 2000 about the Perl module Symbol::Approx::Sub - Perl for the People
A slightly tongue in cheek talk that I gave at both The Open Source Convention and YAPC::Europe in 2001. - Why Perl Advocacy Is A Bad Idea
The text of a lightning (five minute) talk that I gave a few times during 2001. - The State of Perl
A survey of the past, present and future of Perl that I gave at FOSDEM in Feb 2004. - Open Source: It's Already Here
A talk I gave to the British Computer Society's North London Branch. The link is to an OpenOffice.org file, but it's also available in PDF and (spit!) Powerpoint versions. - Perl and
Perl 6
Two talks I gave to Lonix. They are basically very similar to the State of Perl talk listed above, but updated, slightly expanded and split in two. - An Introduction to the Template Toolkit
A talk I gave at the Italian CodeJam in Ferrera in October 2004 and at FOSDEM in Feb 2005. - Idiomatic Perl and
Tieing and Overloading in Perl
Two talks I gave on the Perl Whirl in October 2004.
