Yes, I generally strike the same issue with lecture-form presentation of information, no matter what the information. I need a high density of information that I don't get from talks, and I do much better when I control the flow of information.

Like thorfinn, there's nothing there so far (at ten minutes in - I haven't had the time to listen to the rest yet, quite apart from issues of the medium) that I'm not familiar with. Possibly unlike thorfinn, though, my success in convincing colleagues of the importance of these ideas has generally been fairly limited. It's stuff I really wish more software developers understood.
