As I keep saying (and I know you'll be sick of this but it needs to be on each post in case they're read in isolation).
"Disclosure: I'm attending this year's Openworld Conference at the
invitation of the Oracle ACE Director program, which is paying my
travel and accommodation expenses. The time off work is my own choice."
Well I decided that I should really join in the Unconference fun and do my bit. I haven't previously for a couple of reasons.
1) Initially, I was keen that an Unconference should be filled with new faces and not the same old ones, but I suppose it's down to who is prepared to give it a go and people see who they want to see anyway. Part of the reason I'm going to so many Unconference presentations this year is because I know the quality of the speakers.
2) These guys are *so* quick to claim slots! LOL I'm glad there are a few left over for onsite registration.
So I've booked a slot at 10am on Thursday morning - maximum cold recovery time and I already know I'll be watching Kevin Closson in the slot before. But I need some help ....
At the moment, I've put the 'How I learned to love pictures' title there and could just give a similar presentation to the one I've given at several SIGs and will be given at UKOUG in December. But, to be honest it's different every time and is very unstructured with almost no slides.
However, I also have some other ideas and am wondering if they sound more appealing.
"Why you need a variety of performance analysis tools"
"ASH - strengths, weaknesses"
I expect these to generate more debate which is a more suitable style for an Unconference presentation. So, what do you think? I'm all ears.
I'll probably blog about it more here later.
