<html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">The proposal deadline for Ignite Portland is coming up fast on January 15. Right now there isn't much in the way of gadgety or electronics talks to pick from, so it'd be great if a few dorkbot folks suggested something. You can find details at <a href="http://www.igniteportland.com/want-to-present/">http://www.igniteportland.com/want-to-present/</a>.<div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>The event itself will be February 5th at the Bagdad Theater (more info at <a href="http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/390164/">http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/390164/</a>). It's only a five minute presentation, so all sorts of geeky or Portland-focused things could work. And even if you don't submit a talk, consider attending.<div><br><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><div>--</div><div>Audrey Eschright</div><div>lifeofaudrey.com</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></span></span> </div><br></div></div></body></html>
