Lightning Talks were very successful at the JA-Sig Unconference and so we are hosting them at the UCamp.  Lightning Talks are short 10 minutes or less talks with or without slides. You discuss a topic of interest to you that you want to share with the community. 

How do I give a "lightning talk"?

Mark Fowler's article has advice on effectively structuring lightning talks.

How quick should my Lightning Talk be?

Your lightning talk should last no more than ten minutes. A five-minute lightning talk is totally fine. A two-minute lightning talk is totally fine. Your talk should take as long as it needs to take to make a point, and no longer. Make a point. But if you need a few minutes to motivate your point, and then make it, and it takes nine minutes, that's okay too.
