Douglas Crockford: Monads and Gonads (YUIConf Evening Keynote)
YUI Library
Douglas Crockford's YUIConf 2012 evening keynote tries to explain monads in a way programmers can actually understand, in the context of JavaScript. He aims to break the 'monad tutorial curse'.
Mentioned as a great talk alongside Crockford's book, and mostly quoted for his quip that once you understand monads you lose the ability to explain them.
