Many people seem to find it more useful since the references can be more fully explored, however some people have told me that the lecture helps to bring things together for them.
Enjoy…
P.S. – Watch for the cameo appearance from Frisco City Mayor Mike Simpson!

Hey man, I just watched your presentation in its entirety and I wanted to let you know I enjoyed it. I’m from Dallas but I’ve been in Philly for the past few months and I was upset that I couldn’t make it to WordCamp, so thanks for sharing the video(s).
John, that was really great to get to watch! On the one hand, it makes me (and us, I’m sure, though I won’t speak for everyone) feel like I know you even better now! And also, it was extremely helpful to have you ‘talk us through’ the ‘45 Ways’ post! It definitely made the first post more valuable to me. I sure wish I could have gone, but, having these videos is definitely the next best thing!

This was my lecture given at the WordCamp Dallas 2008 event held at City Hall in Frisco, TX. A fully documented and hyperlinked version of this video is also available, entitled 45 Ways to Power Up Your Blog. 
That is one long video. I watched a fair amt of it. But I’d never thought that my host could affect my traffic.

Nice presentation John. I’m relatively new here and take inspiration from the fact that you have achieved so much in less than two years, amazing!
Useful presentation John, I even made notes.
However, could you add which WordPress plugins you mentioned and any other links to related resources on this post?
I think it would be useful for your readers – especially if I missed something.
For the plugins John uses, check this post: http://onemansblog.com/2007/11/08/complete-list-of-omb-wordpress-plugins/
Thanks for the link you three :)
