I’ll be speaking on my ITP thesis “The Noisy Idiot Dilemma” at Ignite NYC IX on Wednesday as part of NYC’s Internet Week.  There is such an exciting and vibrant tech community here in NYC at the moment, its great to be part of it.

It is my first speaking gig on my thesis since I presented it at ITP (video here).  I’ll be speaking alongside some people I really admire including the Director of Expert Labs – Anil Dash and Smith Magazine’s Larry Smith.  The magic of Ignite is in its format: 5 minutes per speaker, 20 slides.  That’s one way to really summarize your year-in-the-making-thesis…

I’ll be speaking about how we can make online group discussion easier, specifically how we can deal with noisy, disruptive behavior in the online conversation sphere.  The results surprised me, I’ll be really interested to hear your thoughts.
