At NTEN’s ‘09 Nonprofit Technology Conference a couple weeks ago, I participated in the Ignite Presentations which was a load of fun. An Ignite presentation is a five minute presentation, with 20 slides that change automatically every 15 seconds. It’s quite a rush, for the speaker and the audience alike!

As part of the planning, it might be a good idea to have the slides so participants can organize their thoughts and prepare, but then transform it into an conversation by ditching the slides for the actual webinar.
