UseR! 2011 slides and videos – on one page

Links to slides and talks from useR 2011 – all organized in one page.

I was recently reminded that the wonderful team at warwick University made sure to put online many of the slides (and some videos) of talks from the recent useR 2011 conference.  You can browse through the talks by going between the timetables (where it will be the most updated, if more slides will be added later), but I thought it might be more convenient for some of you to have the links to all the talks (with slides/videos) in one place.

I am grateful for all of the wonderful people who put their time in making such an amazing event (organizers, speakers, attendees), and also for the many speakers who made sure to share their talk/slides online for all of us to reference.  I hope to see this open-slides trend will continue in the upcoming useR conferences…

Bellow are all the links:
