BYOPPT

My friends put on a BYO-powerpoint-presentation evening where they each discussed something interesting and/or off-the-wall. It's like a mini-TED talks but minus the gravitas. I'd like to do this one evening; we used to stick around after work and "mess around."

Let's tell some stories!

Spark Festival @ UMN - Seeking Submissions

Julia, who works in the shop, suggested we look into this:

The Spark Festival of Electronics at UMN is seeking submissions. A new category is "Wearables" and they're looking for people to give 15 minute presentations on work they have done.

Who's in? The deadline was Oct 31st, but chances are the "wearables" category won't be flooded with submissions, yet.
