Public:unTED talks 2012
TED-style presentations except, you know...unTED. Spread your ideas.
Scheduling and Timing
In keeping with the guidelines for TED talks, please try and limit your talk in length. 10 minutes is a good target length (not including a short Q&A period). Individuals exceeding 15 minutes will be aggressively heckled, unless the majority of listeners chooses to allow them more time (similar to the Roman Senate's method of using waterclocks).
Based on feedback from last year, this year we will try limiting unTED Talks to dinnertime so the talks don't conflict with other activities.
Days and times to be announced.
