[Fwd: [Buffalo-pm] Invitation to/for TPM September Lightning Talks]

[Kevin Christopher]

I'm passing along a call for Lighting Talks at next TPM meeting (9/25). In
case you're wondering how you will get there if you want to give a
lightning talk or just sit in, I for one plan on going up to TO and will
take as many as will fit into my car (trunk excluded). We can discuss car
pool plans at this Thursday's meeting.

This a general call for participation with the Toronto PM's
annual 'Lightning Talk' meeting scheduled for this month
on September 25.

So far we already have the following topics:

 Internet access using GPRS    - Indy Singh
 Tk: Tcl versus Perl           - Fulko Hew
 Import, Export and Tags       - Richard Dice
 When UTF does the Un-expected - Glenn Simpson

Giving a lightning talk is easy!

1/ Pick a topic
2/ Ramble on for about 5 minutes
3/ Stop when the bell sounds.

You can talk about just about anything you want...

  something you've done,
  something you want to do,
  something you want to know,
  something you're having problems with,
  something you hate about Perl,
  something you love about Perl,
  your favourite CPAN module,
  etc.

So come on people, I know you all have 5 minutes in you.
How about a competition?  Can the Buffalo mongers come
up with better or more topics than the KW mongers, or
will the Toronto mongers do it.

We are hoping to get the nearby mongers to attend, so
let's make it all worth our while.

If you have a topic either email your emcee and moderator your topic to:
fhew3 at cogeco dot ca

or update the Kwiki page yourself at:

Oh, and as encouragement to particpate, I promise to stop sending
annoying 'call for particpation' messages every few days once we
get a dozen topics submitted!
