As Paul has already mentioned on his blog, I am very honored to be the MC for the extremely fun and informative SpeedGeek event at ILUG 2008. I have been fortunate enough to host SpeedGeeking for both Lotusphere and ILUG, and I have to say it is one of the most enjoyable and informative events available. Here's my description of SpeedGeeking from last year:

We've all heard of "Speed Dating" - the A.D.D. way to meet the maximum number of potential partners in the minimal amount of time. What happens if you try to do the same thing with a room full of geeks? Let's find out! SpeedGeeking is a brand-new , quick-n-dirty, raucous way to learn some great tips, tricks, and techniques from some of the best and brightest of our ILUG speakers. In a short 5 minutes you'll see some tips, techniques (and sometimes crazy) ideas that they have been working on. Migrate in small groups from one demo to the next, while a short yet loud-mouthed MC keeps things moving! The result may feel out of control, but it is guaranteed to be fun (and maybe a little informative as well)!

So if you're attending ILUG, please make sure you keep the evening of Thursday, 5 June 2008, open to attend SpeedGeeking!
