From A VC:
I just read Steven Johnson's post about the Lacy/Zuckerberg interview. It's an old post, he wrote it the day after the now infamous interview.
Steven does a lot of public speaking, he says fifty public appearances a year in the post. In the post he talks about how he has devised tricks to determine the "room tone" - if the room is with you, against you, or just bored of you. It's so important when you are up on the stage. I don't do it nearly as much as Steven or many others. But I do it enough. And I spent a lot of time on stage in business school where I taught some lecture classes in front of 200 to 300 people. I've always viewed the number one job when you are on stage is to entertain and keep people interested. If you can do that, you have a chance of making an impact. If you can't you are toast.
