Chris Myhill and I started The .NET Developer Network (aka #DotNetDevNet) four years ago on St. George's Day 2007. On Monday 13th June 2011 we held our fiftieth meeting. I was delighted to have a very special speaker for this meeting, none other than .NET Rocks co-host Richard Campbell. I was also particularly pleased because he was giving a session I had seen twice before and felt was one of the best presentations I have seen.

In these 50 meetings we have witnessed some very fine presentations and I have always felt that great speakers deserve recognition for their great performances. So here are the top 10 speakers over these first 50 meetings by Knowledge Of Subject and then by Presentation Skills.

Congratulations to Richard Campbell for a truly fabulous presentation on Monday and congratulations to everyone on these lists - you are stars and heroes.
