Ask HN: What makes a good API presentation?

3 points by catshirt ↗ HN
i don't want to limit answers here so i won't be too specific. as a developer, what takeaways would you want from a presentation focusing on a particular API? what makes a presentation interesting and what's crucial you learn? context: i'm presenting an API tomorrow at hackNY and looking for some insight to see what i can improve.

Joshua Bloch gave a good presentation on API design, you might have seen this before. Here is the link - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAb7hSCtvGw

Mostly along those lines will make a presentation useful and interesting. Not sure whats the time limit for your presentation but real life example would keep the audience more interactive or building something on the fly from ground up.
