"Pompous Windbag" - by Anon on 31-JAN-2013
Reviewer Rating:
Impossible to listen to. He takes forever to get to what may have been possibly useful information, but he is so condescending and outirght nasty, the presentation is very unpleasant to listen to.

"Big amount source of knowledge and experience" - by Claudio Nanni on 19-FEB-2011

Theo in this couple of hours shows a very big amount of concepts taken from real experience, may be too fast for common people! I am impressed of the amount of information that Theo can give in only two hours. This video is valuable source of information for anyone involved in internet applications. Probably the best way to get advantage of this is to view it a couple of times at least and then go deeper on some preferred arguments. From Load Balancing thru routing(for availability), to database, web servers, messaging systems, capacity planning, common sense scaling. Best quote: "Some companies base their entire business models on the fact that they are idiots!" - So true.
A 360° approach to internet applications, "think as an engineer not as a programmer".

I didnt even make it through the first 5 mins. and I cant stand this guy.  He could be the best engineer in the world but until he loses that attitude he should try another medium.
