IGNITE

So, the night ended with IGNITE - which was an opportunity for participants to make 5 minute presentations with no more than 20 slides that move at their own pace. There were 12 total. Some were really interesting. Liked Howtoons by Saul Griffith. They are cartoons designed to teach kids how to be builders and grow interest in science. Maybe even be future hackers. Do you have these in your library? Also like Deborah Schultz's 5 minutes on Stop Yelling - Start Weaving. Focused on the whole notion that we need to think of our new social networks not as silos of relationships, but the weaving of relationships - that we will never know exactly how they will develop or form. Technology changes humans don't.

This process would be fun to do in Libraryland!
