About a month ago I gave a lightning talk at a local IgniteIT Event. I haven’t done a lot of public speaking so I was a bit nervous going in. But the people that I was with stated that the talk I gave was pretty good. I assumed they had been drinking heavily so I couldn’t trust them that much.
But now the 5 minute talk is on the intertubes for all to see. So here it is, enjoy.
Great ad! Well done Nintendo!
A good time waster for your Saturday morning.
Every once in a while one of the LUG lists that I am on decides to have a big dick contest and everyone shows off who has the better uptime. Its actually a way of generating traffic on mailing lists that have greatly suffered any sort of reasonable traffic in a while. Its the same as starting a vi vs emacs flame war. No one really wins, but it always gets people contributing to the list.
Big numbers are hard to visualize and put into context. I think that this video does a nice job of explaining the 100 million that the Obama administration wants to cut.
I’ll give them credit, you have to start somewhere, but there is a LOT more that can get cut. Keep going guys!
