[Noisebridge-discuss] Musings

   i've got a similar tho't: a "jellybean" talk 
that precedes a main talk. 
   for example, a jellybean talk about using solder 
suckers that precedes some electronic-oriented 
workshop or lab or other event. 
   another example, a jellybean talk about some 
particular commonly used idiom in spanish that 
precedes the main spanish seminar.... 
   jellybean talks, in my view, necessarily 
have someone other than the presenter or 
coordinator of the main talk and take up from 
five to fifteen minutes. they're a reward for 
getting there on time and they allow a little 
slop for those stuck in traffic or otherwise 
delayed in getting to the event. (we do like 
starting events on time, yes?)
