There Is A Chance That I May Speak At TAM9!

TAM – The Amazing Meeting 9 will be in Vegas – July 14-17, 2011.  Every year they put out a call for “papers”.  Anyone can propose a presentation.  If they choose yours, you get 20 minutes to do a presentation in front of more than 1,000 people.  Last year they had 2 dozen proposals and I made the first cut down to 10.  In the end they could only choose 6 and I did not get to give my talk.

This year I have made improvements on my presentation and given it to more groups.  I have presented in Chicago, St. Louis (X2), Fayetteville AR, Little Rock AR, and Tulsa OK.  If you would like me to give a presentation to your group – let me know.

For TAM9, 31 people have proposed talks.  I just learned that I have survived the first cut down to just 12 people.  I have to spend some time working on my talk and now need to write a paper that could be published.  So, I will be busy this weekend.  Keep your fingers crossed!

    @ William,
    I am so sorry. I’m sure your talk would have been awesome!

    Thanks. I think I might bring a print version of The Babbler to TAM instead.
