Okay, that was fun! -- Kort maar krachtig ;-) I didn't have time to talk to you afterwards, but it was very good to see that so many people were interested in Shoes! I hope some of them pick it up... I don't know whether you are going to do more presentations on Shoes in the future (since you have already done two), but I think it would be nice to do a small demo of actually writing an app during the presentation, especially to show off how easy and intuitive it is to write Shoes apps compared to using other toolkits, I think that will really get people hooked (and if someone wants to see some specific stuff, you can code it on the fly). And explaining some of the ideology behind Shoes (apps like the web, inspired by Nodebox and Processing, ...) would be good as well. Seeing you demoing stuff from the Shoebox was really cool! Cheers, and keep up the good work! Bram
