Abstract:
Lightning Talks (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_Talk) are typically between 5-10 minutes. The amount of time you will have will be determined by the number folks interested in giving talks. I'm pretty sure we have a gong too. Also talks do NOT have to be perl related. I'd love to see a good variety of topics! Fun is good too. :)
Indeed, lightning talks are sixteen five-minute talks in a ninety-minute time slot (or eleven in a sixty-minute slot.) I usually come to a lightning talk when I wouldn't come to a long talk on the same subject.
