I enjoyed Joseph Walker’s memories of General Conference in the Deseret Morning News. What are some of your memories from this last conference? (video or otherwise
).

Elder Wirhtlin of course.
I was also very excited to hear Elder Eyring called to the first Presidency. He’s my favourite speaker of the 15, and I am ecstatic to hear him speak multiple times in conference now.

Concerning Elder Eyring’s calling to the First Presidency…Our Stake President’s 1st Councilor has met and speaks often with Elder Eyring as well as some within our membership went to school in Idaho while he was President of the University (College) at that time… One and all speak lovingly of him and are very pleased by this revelation. I too enjoyed his multiple talks during conference.
Doesn’t our Prophet look great… I just love them one and all…

I just want to thank the Church IT Department for providing conference over the Internet. I am able to download conference to my MP3 player and listen to it over and over again while riding the City Bus to work each day. It takes an hour and a half for me to get to work each day and another hour and half to get back home. This gives me an opportunity to hear talks from the leaders of the Church as well as BYU Devotionals. The Technology is just phenomenal. I remember that when I was in High School the VCR had just come out and I always wanted one so I could record Conference to watch when ever I wanted. Now I only need a cheap 30 dollar MP3 Player to listen to conference. AMAZING!

Elder Wirthlin’s determination to finish his talk regardless. Would that we all are that strong when we’re his age!

I enjoyed Elder Scott’s talk that identified both the scientific method and inspiration as compatible and important means of attaining truth.

Sister beck’s talk about mothers who know. A very sensitive affirmation of the 1995 proclamation regarding families.
And I want to second Roy’s sentiments; I was particularly impressed by the quality of the live stream.

Question: Why is it that the audio and video files for the Priesthood Session are never published? Every other talk in every other session is avaiable, so why isn’t the priesthood session published? Is that intentional, or is an over sight or accidental omission in the webpage template?
[Joel: For now, the Brethren have decided not to post these links. I don’t know why. You can click on the ASL link on that same page and see the video.]

I was struck by the talk President Hinckley gave that Saturday evening about anger. He acknowledged it was a subject not often covered, but then proceeded with a very fresh and badly-needed discourse. It touched me deeply because this is an issue I struggle with daily. The fact that he did address it gave me a renewed spirit of commitment to overcome its enslavement.

Maybe this is not the place to post this, but I would love a way to download the individual conference talk MP3’s (as their own tracks rather than downloading the entire session). But, I’d like to be able to do it without having to save every single file manually. Would it be possible for the church to create a single file that we could download from LDS.org that would contain all of the talks as separate MP3’s?
[Joel: Agreed! We’re working on it.!]
