Description
This Month we will be doing something a little differently.
Because SQL Saturday #244 is on this month we thought we would have a little fun and have an evening of lightning talks, so what is a lightning Talk.
Rules:
1. 8-10 minutes max, you will be pulled off after 10
2. 2-7 PowerPoint slides
3. No Code (but you can put code samples in your slide)
These rules are to ensure that everybody sticks to their timelines and avoids the needs for swopping laptops etc. For those of you who have wanted to speak but have found the thought of speaking for 40 minutes or the risk of having your code crash, this is the perfect opportunity to raise your hands and have a go. Spaces are limited but we can look at creating a few more spots if there is a good demand.
