Ignite Boise was fantastic tonight!

Talks ranged from one lame sales pitch to a couple okay presentation to NUMEROUS superb, fun, and interesting presentations.

I found 10 Ways to NOT Romance a Woman to be one of my favourites. Great speaker, fun topic, poignant stories - one grave warning: Chocolate thongs are not to be worn by a man on his way to a date. Just saying.

Presentation range:

Reuseum (been meaning to go to Geek Heaven but haven't made it over there yet) discussed the virtues of reusing and recreating gadgets and stuff from older stuff.

Food from around the world, some of it pretty smelly (passed around the huge audience).

What would Adam and Eve have tweeted had twitter been invented back then.

An ENTIRE PRESENTATION as a PALINDROME. so cool.

About these English dudes who got this French dude drunk so they could strip his bike and see how he got it to go so fast. Basically a history of the physical structure of bike - and how it's translated into vehicles.

Stay out of my business, uterus, and relationships. About the acceptance of alternative relationship choices, making baby choices, and questioning the pushing of a business model (marriage) with a 50% failure rate.

"Hey" is not a good subject line.

You can find cool history in attics. What is the next generation going to find in your attic? A tweet? I don't think so.

This is not a recession. This is a REVOLUTION if we chose to behave as such.

Adults should play. Tagging and grafitti are good.

Funny, entertaining, interesting! I'm definitely going to Ignite Boise 2.
