All Web Directions North slides and podcasts now online
There was a whole host of genuinely excellent presentations at Web Directions North back in January. The good news for people who weren’t there is that so many of the presenters were incredibly generous with their knowledge and expertise and have allowed us to publish their slides and podcasts.
Check them out yourself if you haven’t already - it’s the closest thing to being there, and spread them around at the workplace. If I do say so myself, these are an amazing learning resource.

Just wanted to thank you for putting these online, and ask if you could double check the Josh Williams presentation (Bedroom to Boardroom) it seems to be clipping or cutting bits out, I’m not sure what the case is.
Tested on Mac / Win iTunes, Quicktime, iPhone, etc, so I don’t think it’s my device.
Thanks again for all the others though! Great content!

Yeah, I’m just listening now and somehow it does seem to have become corrupted. I’ll try and find out at what stage of the process this happened and see if we have a clean version somewhere along the line. Hope so :(

Brian Oberkirch has the slides of his prezzo up on his site.
He has them up on Slideshare too so I imagine he’d be OK with adding them to this collection.
And thanks for letting me get the flavour of the presentations I couldn’t get to.
