Willing to help out with Ignite Phoenix #2?

September 5th, 2008 · general, organizers

We’ve had a bunch of email and tweets this week asking us about Ignite Phoenix #2 (aka The Sequel, Son of Ignite Phoenix, The Ignition Strikes Back, etc)  We’re talking about it, but we need help!

We’re working to finalize the date and location, but this beast is a bit of work and if we can spread the effort it will not only be a lot easier, but it will be more of a community effort.  If Ignite #1 was about proving Phoenix could support an Ignite, Ignite #2 will be about making it really a community project.

We’re looking for people who can help with the web site, technical items, or just helping reach out to many of the different groups around town to help recruit presenters and spread the word.  If you’re willing to devote a few hours over the next few months to chipping in, leave a comment with your contact info or send an email to ignitephoenix at gmail dot com and we’ll get you on the list!

Ignite Phoenix #1 videos up on Blip.TV

September 2nd, 2008 · presentations

Thanks to some great work by Clintus McGintus (of I Do It Digital), who did the fine video streaming and recording during the event last month, the individual videos are now up on the Ignite Phoenix Blip.TV account.

Recording all the presentations was a bit of an experiment for us, which only really worked because Clintus stepped up to help.  Now that we’ve seen how popular it was both at the time and afterwards we are going to make the video streaming/recording a bigger priority at future events.

Where the Hell Is Matt? At Ignite Seattle, apparently!

August 24th, 2008 · Other Ignites

If you’re not one of the 20 million or so people who have watched Matt dance at locations around the world and assemble the footage on YouTube, then get on over and give it a watch.  It’s a great story.

Apparently Matt was up at the Ignite Seattle event (via Gnomedex) and danced on stage with people from the audience.

We had music at the first Ignite Phoenix, but no dancing.  Next time… next time… :)
