I'll be speaking at a couple of awesome educational events in early December. Here are the details...
I'll be one of the Rapid Fire presenters at the Big Ideas Fest at Half Moon Bay, CA, December 4-7. Details from the website:
3 days of innovation and inspiration, 16 Speakers, 4 hands-on Action Collab sessions, and numerous opportunities to network with fellow education mavericks and change agents. All of that, plus an entire Pacific Ocean coastline on which to marvel.
Also, I'll be the keynote speaker for the Western Regional Computer Advisory Committee's 2011 Symposium, in London Ontario on December 8th, 2011. The symposium brings together teachers, principals and administrators in Western Ontario, Canada. From the website:
Symposium is all about ideas. The keynote and breakout sessions are carefully selected by the organization committee. There is no "call for proposals"; all of the keynotes and sessions are selected specially for the message that they will deliver. The message is timely and contemporary with the goal being to inform all of the school districts at the same time. Regularly, the audience is filled with over 400 directors, superintendents, principals, and technology leaders.
I hope we'll see you at one of these events!

Thanks!

It's true. Sachi and I are attending the Texas Library Association Conference in Austin, April 12-15th. I will be presenting on Thursday the 14th at 2pm and my talk is called "The Art of Explanation - in Plain English". I hope you'll come.
This will be our first library conference and we're really excited to meet people like you and take it all in. Librarians are among our most dedicated fans and this conference is one of the biggest events in the library world. If you're going to the conference, leave a comment or contact us - it would be great to meet face-to-face.
Where Goldfish Come From

A couple of months ago, I presented a 5 minute presentation at Ignite Seattle called "Where Goldfish Come From" that is based on my experience growing up as a son of a goldfish farmer in North Carolina. The Ignite series happens around the globe and each presenter has 20 slides that display for 15 seconds each, and auto-advance. It's a challenge to make it work, but I enjoy it.
Here's the video:

I'll be speaking at what is shaping up to be a fun event at Zaaz in downtown Seattle on August 14th. I'll be presenting a version of the Online Community as Party talk. The event is free and focused on folks in the local UX / usability / IA / design community. To RSVP, pleae leave a comment here.Â
I'm looking forward to seeing my friend Paul Ingram from Ingram Labs and hearing more about "The Effective Use of Kittens" from Jason Carmel of Zaaz and "The Art of Deep Hanging Out" from Emma Rose. Good fun - thanks for putting all this together Ryan!
I'll be a panelist in an upcoming webinar that is being put on by Vocus, the parent company of PRWeb. It's called "Maximizing PR Impact with Online Video." We're just finishing up a video for PRWeb and I plan to focus on the democratization of video, among other things.
The panel will be moderated by Jiyan Wei and my fellow panelists include two very experienced folks in the online video world:
- Stephen Harris, Executive Producer, Discovery (see the TLC broadband series Makeover Train).
- [Updated] Bart Feder, CEO, The FeedRoom.
I'm really looking forward to the discussion - I hope we'll see you there!
Online Community as Party

A while back I posted an entry called Your Community is a Party Waiting to Happen that outlined a number of common sense ways that hosting a party is like managing an online community. I really believe the metaphor is useful and I've developed a talk on the subject.
Here are the slides from the talk...
