I see the recording went live this morning. Thanks again to all the speakers and in-room and worldwide attendees for coming and watching!

My favorite part was seeing the response to the challenge to write a cool graphical interactive C++ program from scratch in 24 hours using a library most had never seen before – Cinder or openFrameworks. In two other GN segments we showed the results. Here’s they are:

Thank you all for coming! It was a blast.
Really enjoyed the talk, can’t wait to watch 2D graphics’s journey along the Standard library road. Whatever happens its going to be interesting and while C++ may indeed be ‘expert friendly’, I firmly believe we can do much, much more to make it an attractive and approachable first choice for aspiring young creative developers.
Nice presentation, specially as it also provided a way to know about openFrameworks and Cinder.
The major problem I see with the “One C++” speech, is that your employer is famously known for being the least C and C++ compliant compiler vendor, always investing more time and money into language extensions for Windows only frameworks like COM, ATL and WinRT, in spite of the recent “going native” focus.
