[Chicago-talk] Ignite Chicago - call for speakers

[Sean Harper]

If you had five minutes on stage what would you say? What if you only
got 20 slides and they rotated automatically after 15 seconds?

A few members of the community have gotten together to organize an
Ignite event here in Chicago at Goose Island Wrigleyville 6pm on
Thursday 12/6/2007.  There have been several Ignite conferences
already on the East and West coasts, but if our initial speaker list
is any indication, ours in Chicago will be the best yet.

If you aren't interested in speaking, you should still come, it will
be fun and interesting.

For more information check out these three sites:

event is free and there are sponsored drinks)

Sorry for the spam, but hopefully this is relevant enough to the list
that nobody will get upset.  This really will be a fun event.  Also,
there is a bit of a Ruby and PHP bias to the speaking list, Perl
mongers have to step up and represent.
