I see Josh Berkus recommends doing lightning talks:

And myself, I highly recommend doing talks at sf.pm before trying them
out on a bigger audience.

Myself, I found it excellent preparation for delivering a talk at OSCON:
I knew exactly how much of the material I was going to get through in
the allotted time, I certainly didn't need to read my slides, and I
didn't feel any trace of nervousness.

Lighning Talks are now *less* than three weeks away, September 22nd,
back at the Six Apart location:
