This session was fantastic. Wish I would have had time to attend Brian's phonegap talk yesterday. Really appreciated his ability to cut through any BS.

phonegap is an awesome project. doesn't really do himself any favors dropping the f-bomb every other word. just got silly after a while.

that said, I appreciated the insight on cache sizes, and what xui does and doesn't offer. it's great that he has a strong development point of view and expresses that.

I thought the content was great... A little too much attention on the graphics on the slides vs. the content. And personally, though the speaker was extremely engaging and funny, the over-the-top profanity detracted from the talk.

Great session, I didn't mind the occasional (well, frequent) swearing. The cache size bit was a great takeaway.

Important stuff to know as we move toward building mobile sites.

Blunt, engaging info that cut to reality well ... could have been just as cool and fun without all the f-bombs... but hey, he seemed to enjoy giving the talk and i enjoyed taking it in.

I enjoyed this talk, however my only feedback is that the speaker should be more careful about extending the humor to serious questions. For example, when asked about why to learn Objective-C for iPhone dev seems it looks that JS was enough, his answer made it sound that Objective-C does not really add value to iPhone dev which is not true. This makes the speaker to lose credibility.

Great topic and content. Speaker was funny and slides were nostalgic, but I got annoyed with the language after the 2nd f-bomb. There's a line between "hip" and "pro". Would have been just as effective if it was cleaner.

I did enjoy the content a lot and I plan on taking away some of the info in our new mobile app. thanks for that.
