Last night’s event was so much fun!

Many thanks to Allegra Searle-LeBel, Corprew Reed, Leah Papernick, Noah Iliinsky, and Benjamin Black for helping me with the talk.

The night began with about 200+ people crammed into the bar building popsickle-stick bridges and then testing jumping up and down on them. After all the bridges had been “tested”, things settled down and the 5-minute “Ask later” presentations began.

Bre Pettis (Make:) said “the audience was enthralled as the superstars of local start-ups, creative innovators, scientists, hackers, puzzle-makers, and regular folks doing cool things managed to dump their brains into five minute power-point presentations.”

We got a lot of positive response from the presentation, and we’re planning on doing it again at the next Ignite Seattle in February. Many thanks to Brady Forrest for creating such a cool event!

There should be videos of the event posted soon.
