True story: I have a colleague who bid on a project and was expected to be the
winning bid. However, another bidder used the phrase "Web 2.0" in their
proposal and for that reason alone the project was awarded to the other bidder!

Subject: [nyphp-talk] Web 2.0 "how to talk like you know something"
presentation

Over the winter break in Decemember, a lot of NYPHP's posted various amusing
presentations done tongue in cheek at various conventions.
One of which was MongoDB for DBA's.
However, another of which[or I just ended up seeing it as a related video]
was about "How to talk about Web 2.0 like you know what your talking
about"..
Basically a presentation on keywords to throw into conversations to act like
you know stuff.
I was talking to a friend the other day and she mentioned how she got so
sick of the word "dynamic" 5-6 years ago since she had to use it in every
proposal she did at her company, multiple times. And I was going to show
her this video because it was so funny.
But now I can't find it!
So, NYPHP's, come to my rescue and give me a laugh. I really need it today.
Pull out your most outrageous BSing presentation, bonus points for those
who can find the one I refer to based on so little info. [Mitch, you need
not apply. :-)]_______________________________________________
