A whirlwind tour of Information Architecture
This was, on the whole, a very entertaining and useful session. Thom is a very engaging speaker, knows his subject thoroughly, and has obvious enthusiasm for IA.

My only quibble is the enormous amount of information in the session. An extra hour would have allowed the session to move at a more leisurely pace. However, Thom posted the slides (more than 300!) to his Web site immediately after the conference, which helped with retaining the flood of information that was covered. This helped immensely.

Lots of info, not enough time
Thom is a thoroughly entertaining and energetic speaker. I felt this workshop was rushed and wish there had been more time to focus rather than skip through it. The content was excellent but I think it would have been more helpful to present less material and go into it deeper. Thom does provide a ton of backup resources and slides on his site that will make all the difference in reviewing what he taught.

 Our attendees asked why we didn't have Confabb Notes last year; it was so powerful they demanded it for next year.
