Tonight I fly out to Las Vegas, Nevada to present for NVRID. I will be presenting on June 21st from 9am to 12pm. They have been a fantastic chapter to work with so far, small but very well organized!
This presentation will be unique in a number of ways. The first of these will be that the presentation will be done through video conference, a first for me. I am very excited to have the opportunity to use this medium for presenting. I fully expect that it will have its own challenges, but I believe the benefits of exploring new technology far outweigh any inconviences. Not to mention that it has its own fun aspect of having packages delivered to remote sites that are not to be opened until the appropriate time in the presentation. That whole curiosity thing. [grin]
Secondly, this assignment will also be unique as it will be a small intimate group, less than 30 overall. I am really looking forward to the conversation, as when its a small group we can have a better opportunity to share stories and get deep into the process. (May pack extra reference books for local attendees to look at)
Last, but not least, the forecast says its going to be over 100 degrees. I am melting now just thinking about it. I have made the assumption that most places in Vegas have heard of central air, so I should survive. LOL But it adds the complication of how do I look professional and yet dress lightly enough to last in the walks outside? Maybe I am being a big baby about this, but it is something to keep in mind. The nights should be great, as they will be down to 70 degrees.
Now just keep your fingers crossed for a safe flight there and back!
