My apologies for not capturing the screen during the session. You can find a demo of the nodes, net_adm:ping, and distributed rick-roll here: freshbrewedcode.com/bryanhunter/2012/03/27/intr... and the number averaging demo (plus debugging as a bonus) here: freshbrewedcode.com/bryanhunter/2011/11/27/debu...
Ping me here or on Twitter (@bryan_hunter) if you would like screencasts on other specific bits.
Cheers,
Bryan
