I don't suppose you have a write up or bullet points of what you expanded on for each quote?
I recognize this may sound negative, but if this was a list of 12 quotes and not embedded in slides, I don't think it would be worth putting on the front page of HN (unless of course it was by Joel Spoelsky, PG, etc, because there are enough people who will vote that up on reputation alone).
Just my opinion, obviously enough people disagreed to vote it up ;). I also recognize you must have put some thought into picking these 12 quotes, but they're all quotes I've already seen before, which is why it doesn't really provide much value to me in the form it's in.
I would love to see the meat behind each slide though - I clicked on your quotes tag, that was a little better but had a lot of other stuff to wade through.
Amit Ranjan the co-founder of Slideshare, called it an "inspirational masterpiece." I suppose I could have gone in and written something up but at this point just should leave it alone.
