Style Guides: Why I love them

I gave a talk at RefreshPDX on Style Guides, which have quickly become something I'm fairly passionate about and so I love talking about them. I really enjoyed showing folks all the wonderful reasons you would want to make a style guide and it was a great crowd that turned out as well. Plus, it included a few animated gifs and a real life example of a style guide that I am still working on.

You can find the slides on Speakerdeck if you want to take a look, although they may not makes sense to you without the words, but there are good resources.
