Idiomatic Perl

The slides for my Idiomatic Perl tutorial from OSCON are online.

There's also a PDF version to make up for the fact that I sent the wrong version to O'Reilly to print out for the attendees.


Nicely done

Good job on the idiomatic slides. I particularly like your use of CSS to keep the navigation fixed in one spot. It makes quickly scanning much easier since I can keep my mouse in one place for clicking and use the wheel to scroll. :-) Now one day I need to learn more CSS myself...

another tweak

from your use of CSS, I'm guessing you like
using the bells and whistles offered by
standards-forward browsers.

In that case you might want to put link elements
in your head element so that supporting browsers
(iCab, mozilla, mozilla derivatives) will show
navigational links in a pre-set place.

That way, you don't even need the floating nav
stuff. OTOH, the floating nav stuff gives the
same benefit to those with icky browsers.
