I'm not sure if anyone understood, but the "winging it" was supposed to be a metaphor for startups themselves. You can never be truly prepared.
- rms 17y agoThe other thing is that you clearly didn't completely wing it. You had prepared slides, as a start.
- j_baker 17y agoNo he didn't. I saw him writing the slides as other presenters were speaking. (Not that I'm criticizing him. Some of my best projects in school were written the day they were due.)
- jasonfried 17y agoI did love your talk - I thought it was definitely one of the best. I certainly learned a few things.
- projectileboy 17y agoYour talks were my favorite parts of both SS08 and SS09. I think many other "unprepared" talks are given by other speakers simply trying to imitate your style (with both less humor and less content).
