			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the past couple years, I&#8217;ve attended a few <a href="http://www.seattle20.com/events.aspx">events</a> hosted by various members of the Seattle tech community. Most of them are focused on running and promoting startup companies, but last month I had the chance to attend one that was purely centered around encouraging creative expression: <a href="http://www.igniteseattle.com/">Ignite Seattle</a>. </p>
<p>If you aren&#8217;t familiar with Ignite, it&#8217;s a series of talks which are 5 minutes presentations, each with 20 auto-advancing slides. People are free to talk about whatever they want, since the goal is simply to share exciting and entertaining ideas with the community. Here&#8217;s a meta-talk by <a href="http://scottberkun.com/">Scott Berkun</a> about the format:</p>
<p><object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/yGENcskRGRk&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;hd=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/yGENcskRGRk&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;hd=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object></p>
<p>I could fill this space with more uninteresting text. Instead, I&#8217;m going to share some of the talks I enjoyed. Have fun watching, and hopefully you&#8217;ll quickly see why you should come along with me to the next Ignite, whenever that may be.</p>
