I’m speaking at the Ignite event at MAX
September 21st, 2007 . by polyGeek
I just got word that I was accepted to speak at the Ignite event at MAX, Sunday, September 30th. I’ll be speaking about how video.Maru works and how that can be applied to other UI interfaces.
In case you haven’t heard: an Ignite presentation is a slide presentation that lasts for 5 minutes. You get 20 slides, each displayed for 15 seconds. And the speaker has no control over the slideshow. It’s quite a rush to do one of these. I think maybe I’ll practice a bit.
I did an Ignite talk here in Seattle at the AIR Bus tour event. So I have some experience with the pace. Wish me luck.
Oh, and two of the Ignite speakers, out of the 16, will be selected by the audience to give their presentation again at the MAX Keynote. No pressure. :-)
Congrats!
Maybe call up the guy who did the micromachine commercials? Or better known as the voice of blur in Transformers the movie… the cartoon one :)
Good luck!
September 30th you probably mean. I’m speaking too–never done an ignite talk let alone even attended such an event.
@Phillip, Congratulations on being chosen. Together, we shall rule the night!
Or suck-wind and then get drunk and forget about it. :-)
