Actually I have several related questions, not worth opening different threads:

1. What is the the exterior derivative intuitively? What is its geometric meaning? A possible answer I know is, that it is dual to the boundary operator of singular homology. However I would prefer a more direct interpretation.

2. What is a conceptually nice definition of the exterior derivative?
