My talk on F# last night at LUODN went pretty well – despite worrying that I wouldn’t have enough content it turned out that I had plenty, and even with skipping out some of the demos I still managed to talk for about 1 hour 45 minutes. I’ll post up the slides and code samples over the weekend for anyone interested.
