...what is happening right now in this comments section? I came here to get a thoughtful response about the video, or a brief description at least (videos at work aren't a fantastic idea), and all I see currently are "great video!" and "Steli is neato!"

Also, title seems click-baity.

This smells.

Yeah that is suspicious. Especially this one: "Amazed at what I learned from a 45 min video." By "raybeorn 18 minutes ago" Maybe he watched it before the post.

hey! this is steli (from the talk), sorry I didn't have the time to turn the talk into a blog post yet (will do sometime soon).

I have lots of friends on HN so this translates into a lot of praise which is good for my ego but not really useful to the community. srry about that!

Just uploaded my slides to slideshare to give you a bit of content. check it out to decide if you wanna invest 45mins to watch the talk later :)

It'd be good if your friends brought contributory conversation to HN rather than simply voting on your content when you ask them to.

Thanks for the non-video format though, I will look at it.

HN has a voting ring detector that severely punishes them, if that's what you're alluding to.

Maybe spambots are a very leveraged strategy.

No spambots here sorry :)

Did you watch a bit of the talk? Would love to hear if you think it's not valuable to founders who have to do sales and close deals.
