Ignite is always an awesome time. There is something so fun about the crowd that comes, and then of course there’s all the crazy stuff that happens on stage.

If you’ve never been, the format is 5 minutes per speaker. The catch is the slides are automated: 20 slides, 15 seconds per slide. The results are, shall we say, unpredictable.

It’s this Wed, 7pm at the King Kat Theater in Seattle.

Here’s Wednesday’s awesome lineup:
