There are many ways to give presentations, especially when considering a talk as short as five minutes. With 5MoF, we tend to be fairly loose and allow people to use whatever format they want. If you or anyone else *wants* to do 20 slides that autoadvance, that's great. We've had a few speakers choose to do exactly that.<br>
<br>If someone were to step up and organize an Ignite style evening, that would be really fun. After all, we're a do-ocracy :)<br><br>aestetix<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 4:25 PM, Max Elman <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:max@razorfrog.com">max@razorfrog.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
