by kiteason11. September 2013 00:30The Smart Devs group in Hereford kindly asked me to talk to them about F#. We had a great evening, with loads of pizza and swag. Thank you Smart Devs for such a friendly reception.
Here are links to the materials:

PowerPoint presentation – this includes some material on the Freebase type provider that we didn’t do because of slow internet connection.
