This is stream of consciousness direct from ignite portland 5, welcome!

Wow, there are now 30 community-driven ignite events now, that's incredible

Thank you, Brady Forrest for the fabulous intro!

Huh, handwriting to letterpress letterforms "all your Garamond are belong to us" How many Garamond revivals are there anyway? Yes, the declaration of independence was done in england, no, I'm not surprised. guess I've going to be a cynic tonight sans serif 150 years old? that's it? german and shirt to the guy who guessed that the newest sans serif came from helvetica Arial and Helvetica comparison, Arial as the bastard child.

Jim and the Story of the unverse, hm, in how many minutes? I'm suddenly reminded of seeing what the bleep in the baghdad Pop! 300,000 years gone, how many to go? Hi petit Prince! :) Exposition of Hubble's discovery that the milky way ain't everything "you are here" Earth with a pointer to Portland, cute. Timelines and Deliverables for the pm's out there. maping - to the brain? did we wind up at zombie apocalypse? Hm, I've seen these star comparison images before in an email. Ha, we are going to what the bleep! The story is pointing us to a reverential appreciation of itself. Hm, the universe really is narcissistic! But wait! we have the ability to reinvent ourselves! Reading from slides, why are we reading?

Aaron, he posts content on the internet.... things like this! Oh good, he's not a lawyer, I'm guessing this is going to be a look at agreements on hosted sites. Hm, I'm right! Terms aren't all the same, that is very true. Facebook terms of service, they can do anything they want with the content you post. Many of the others are very much the same. Are there other services out there withbetter licenses? yes. Blogger flickr and youtube are better, only for the purposes of promiting their own sites. @ahockley twitter

Damin Tarlow Suck or Blow. I have no idea. hey! we're on to real estate Nice image of barack as the yes we can image, oh man, nice photoshop! Have to have Paris Hilton in your presentation. Selena, thanks for the suck or blow image! Looking at pdx 50% more efficient buildings, woo! but can we do better? net zero is what we should aim for. "this is hard" way to go, Damin! It is totally possible. LEED is the company that certifies this We have something already going, we're already doing these things, spready it out! Check out this guy's sites, he's fantastic.

Isaac Potoczny-Jones Talking about computers, specifically the android smart phone. Linux smartphone, yeah! Apple - a step in the right direction, but it is a controlling corp, right? oh, my yes. "fuzzy golden handcuffs of apple" omg. Right, not laughing. serious presentation. Oh xkcd!! Epoch Fail!! Okay, awwwwws from the crowd for the random cute kitten image in the slides. Vera, you would have enjoyed the kitten. back to android. encryption and collaboration, and omg, he really does talk fast. go watch the presentation later! App - meditation words - has google started selling it yet? :) Damn, he talks fast. Like I said,

Dr. Jayson Falkner more xkcd!! Talking about DNA - oh good, he speaks more slowly. DNA - okay, moving on - ooh! on to the interesting 5% and on to an xmen slide. I sense unrest i nthe audience. I don't need a mutation for that. Ha, in the slide, who has an Iphone, so you can look up what he's talking about. It only costs $80,000 to do genetic screening for a single trait, um, and we're at a free talk, what? Hey! Plant dna hacking 101! we were just discussing plant geekery last week, a subject close to my own heart. One more example, criminal investigations.

John Metta, none of us are making enough money, okay, you have my attention. Portland has dude, he's dissing Ignite Portland, and the bleeding heart liberals. This is hillarious. Save the world by domination, allrighty then! Free software, what is that? Dude, this guy is entirely tongue in cheek. So not writing all this down either, we're all laughing too much. a 137 step program? Start with rampant greed. #2, role model. #3, men! yes men! cause women just get stuff done. Not this chick - mother theresa...... go for dick cheney. *laughing* Will shoot you in the face. Hmmmmm, analogy anyone? WWDD? So suddenly, there's a site up! awesome talk, man.

A.L. Venable Why you should be riding the bus. And no, she isn't a trimet affiliate. she lives a car-free life-style. Hm, doritos. Yum. You can also spot pimps on the bus, yay free entertainment! OH pdx has to come from somewhere, right tweeps? Transexuals at 1am, what? virgins? really? oh my. in the morning, totallt straightlaced, try trimet after dark, interesting content goes waaaaay up. I can agree with that. How many intersting people do you see after 12am on trimet? Dude. Don't talk to the driver, dude, its for your own safetey. Find someone to talk to, ride with your eyes and ears open. prepare your fare, don't be a douchebag!! Singing the praises of the realities of trimet, love it. OMG, 4th of july, not even in july.

Hooray, intermission. see you cats in 20. Now, for spell-check.
