My presentation from #devnest 03 generated a healthy debate with twitter corp and the attendees of the devnest meeting. I've posted the presentation in its entirety here, and my written notes about it. Ive also captured and posted the comments I got at the devnest event itself and afterwards.

Nobodys ever accused me of being too utopian before. Its the best thing Ive ever been called.
