I had www.ignitephoenix.com up for maybe almost a year now, with nothing more than a plea for someone to step up and basically make it happen. Well, Jeff Moriarty and Roger Williams have taken steps to make Ignite Phoenix a reality.

It looks like it will be happening in August, at the offices of Jobbing.com (they host the monthly Phoenix Social Media Club meeting).

The best place to get info on all the details is www.ignite-phoenix.org

What’s needed now are talk proposals. The idea is to have two sets of short talks; short, as in under 10 minutes; short, as in pecha kucha short, as in no time to be bored or boring.

Suitable topics can be almost anything. No sales pitches. But see here for details.

In between the talk sets there will be a break for discussion and socializing.

Spread the word, and thinking about what you would talk about if you had five minutes and an audience.
