Ignite WordCamp: Call for speakers

ignite_logowcWe’re thrilled to be hosting the first ever Ignite WordCamp at the inaugural WordCamp Boston. Ignite talks are an opportunity to share your passion and expertise with an audience—in this case, all 250 WordCamp participants—in a fast-paced, high impact format. Each Ignite talk is five minutes with 20 slides that auto-advance every fifteen seconds.

If you’d like to have a chance to inspire all of WordCamp Boston, please submit a talk description below. There’s no restriction on topics, as long as they’re WordPress related. Ignite proposals are due on Tuesday, January 5th and then there will be a public vote to decide the speakers. The eight most popular talks will get to present at WordCamp! Dare to enlighten us, but keep it short!

Proposals due – Tuesday 1/5 Friday 1/8 (extended!) at 11:59pm eastern
Voting by Campers – 1/6–1/9
