I second Jarrod on the value of Ignite… though I don't think I found it as stressful as he did. Of course I didn't so much as prepare my talk as have it thrust upon me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgY1u6lkLGU

It's stressful, nerve wracking, makes you want to vomit the entire day of, and requires a load of planning and practice. But you learn a lot and is fun to do. I'm not an expert, you can see me lose track of slide timing and do a little dance during my ignite talk at fluent, but if anyone is interested and wants a few "lessons learned" please hit me up. -- Jarrod Overson tw | gh | g+ | li On Mon, Jun 24, 2013 at 9:03 AM, Kevin Ball <[email protected]> wrote: Hey folks, Sorry about the last minute nature of this, but I realized this didn't make it out to sdruby yet... we've got ignite talks coming back to San Diego for SD Tech Week.
