At WordCamp Lancaster 2014, I set out to challenge myself with a crazy idea. Overall, I think it went pretty well. At least the tweets seemed to be positive
@aaronjorbin Well you certainly have oration down. Well done!

Mini-talks from @aaronjorbin are fantastic. Really dense & useful. @daniKelley's not crazy about the anti-Photoshop talk though

I’ve opened up the source on both the slides and voting front end along with the voting backend. Neither are especially good code, but they worked.
Over the coming weeks I’m going to refine some of the talks into blog posts. Stay tuned!
For those of you wondering, I used a bit of browser fingerprinting so votes only were counted once per browser (or ideally only once per browser).
