Post date: Nov 09, 2015 4:37:5 PM
Its that time again already. The annual Agile Yorkshire Lightning Talk Competition is fast approaching. It's an Xmas tradition to make the December 8th meeting a celebration of community speaking, with prizes to boot. If you don't know what a lightning talk is there are lots of resources around and don't worry it's very simple...
CLOSING Monday 30th NOVEMBER
(event on Tuesday Dec 8th)
A ten minute Lightning Talk for Agile Yorkshire's December 8th 2015 meetup should:
Probably have a maximum of six slides (maybe none).
Be on a topic you already know quite well.
Be interesting to our audience but could be about pretty much anything.
Be possible to completely script (if that’s your style).
Not be a second more than ten minutes.
Win you a SIGNIFICANT prize on the night if you put your mind to it.
Here's some of the topics from the past couple of years:
Omnisharp, developing .NET code without Visual Studio
Finding a School - Code vs MumsNet
Build an Interpreter in 24 Hours!
How cars work
10 simple ways to help your team run like clockwork
How To Write Bad Code

And don't forget there will be significant speaker prizes on the night.
