Good feedback. I might need similar feedback for my upcoming talk. I am about to give a talk about Cayley (open source graph db written in Go) and I am working on my slides http://oren.github.io/adventure-graphs

Let me know what you think and also join us on IRC (#cayley on freenode) if you find it interesting.

TL;DR: graphs are everywhere in the real world, so using a graph DB will be simpler and more efficient; examples of graph queries follow.

Thank you but may I ask who this presentation is for? Because from a quick glance, it's not very deep in technical details. I mean I'm curious about graph databases, but comparing them to vanilla SQL schemas isn't very informative. What I really want to know is what makes them different from denormalized schemas (which is what I expect most people would use).
