The call for speakers for DDD7 is now open; if would like to give a talk, whether short grok or longer presentation style, at DDD 7 on Saturday 22nd November 2008 please complete the short form.

We are opening the form early to give everyone a chance to think about a topic that you are passionate to share with the community. So whether you are a regular speaker on the community circuit or just want to share your knowledge and experience for the first time with others - we welcome you to submit your session proposals. A DDD event is the ideal "first time" experience for anyone wanting to present at a conference; sessions and speakers are chosen by the community.

And just for giggles this year there is the chance to give a micro presentation;

inspired by the runaway success of Pecha Kucha - the "20 slides/20 seconds each" presentation format created in Japan a few years ago. It’s an incredibly exhilarating, creative experience for both presenters and the audience. Presentations are auto-timed; presenters are up against their own wits and skill to talk for 20 seconds before before their slide automatically moves to displaying the next!

(And yes, I was first to submit again this year *grin*)
