Lightning Talks!

Submitted by raster on Tue, 08/31/2010 - 10:04am

A few of us attended BarCampMadison3, and while I may be speaking for only myself here, I have to say the Lightning Talks were the best part of the event... so much so, that I've just set aside 2 hours on Saturday night for them.

See the schedule? Yeah, it's there now.

I propose we have dinner, do a little networking (and preparing) and then spend some time spouting off about something. A pet project, an idea, a concept about an idea, some neat thing you've done, or want to do, or something you want to show off. It's entertaining and educational. In fact, it's entercational!

So join us from 7pm to 9pm on Saturday for the Lightning Talks! And be ready to give one!

On the schedule right now, I see 7-9pm on Saturday set aside for Lighting Talks, which I presume will be discussions on the merits or disadvantages of CFL bulbs over incandescents, and so on. Not quite what I would expect at such a tech-focused gathering.:-P

Actually, the combo Qdoba Taco Bar and Pizza Delivery nearly made my head explode... It's like you knew exactly what my top two favorite foods were!
