I'm currently in Toronto at the Mesh conference taking place at the MaRS centre on College Street. Today was the MeshU day of workshops, including great presentations by John Lax, Leah Culver, Ryan Carson, John Resig, and a bunch of others. I presented in the morning and promised that I'd stick my slides online, so here they are. If audio is available later, I'll try to add it on, but I promised to get them up there at least in a basic way. Thanks to anyone/everyone who came out!

Who am I?
Daniel Burka
I'm the creative director at Digg and I'm a partner at silverorange. I've also helped found Pownce where I design the UI.
I'm a newish San Franciscan and I play a little disc golf, fall off rock climbing walls, and kick soccer balls over the net.

Hey Daniel,
Did you make the meet at The Rhino on Monday? I got caught up and had to miss it, would have been cool to meet some Powncers.

Thank you so much for your "Iteration & You" talk at MeshU. It was very insightful and original. It was very refreshing especially compared to most of my design classes that I took at college.
I would be interested in seeing other pieces you have designed aside from silverorange and digg could you possibly post a few examples if you have any available. Thanks again.
All the best. Josh

Thanks Daniel for the inspiring presentation. Finally an excuse to take the low road... I knew the day would come.

I thought this was one of the standout presentations at FOWD in London recently. Even though you're about web design, the principles apply to software development as a whole. Rapid Iteration, Extensibility, Refactoring. They sounds extremely like some of the key tenets of agile development I’ve been pushing for a while.
Keep up the great work!
