The live coding examples are a bit grainy, so I posted the examples here in the rough order that they appear in the talk.
They are in the Elm's interactive editor, so you can follow along with the talk or just check them out and play around with them!

Very impressive and ground breaking. But why another language? why not use haskell or clojure to build upon to produce javascript? something like clojurescript?

I think it should be "functional reactive programming" (FRP), not "functional reacting programming".
But, then, I have nothing against introducing another term for the same thing :)
