Lightning talks

I guess most of you are already familiar with the idea of lightning talks. For those who aren’t this is a concept of short talks (usually 5min long) happening one after another in a session. For a speaker it’s a good opportunity to show what you’re working on or maybe hold a public rant and start a new drama.

For me, being an attendant, this is a whirlwind tour of what community is up to. Some talks may inspire me greatly, some may be just boring - but still I lost only 5 minutes to find out. And what makes them more interesting - they’re often spontaneous and full of insider jokes :)

We plan to have 1h session of lightning talks each day to get your mind some food for thought. Don’t worry, there’ll be a big flipchart to register for these sessions and see what’s going on.
