Ed
has developed a 50 minute audio-visual presentation recounting his
experience in writing the book. This presentation includes audio clips
from the programmers themselves, including subtitles for those for whom
English is not their native language, together with insight to tie it
all together.
Ed has given this presentation at numerous international developer
conferences and user groups around the world, including JAX in Germany,
Jazoon in Switzerland, The Developer's Conference in São Paulo,
Brazil and the Rich Web Experience in U.S.A..

Audio and Video from Ed's presentation at Jazoon 2009 is available at

Unfortunately, the subtitles did not come through on this presentation,
but those viewing the presentation live do see them.
