If you were thinking about submitting a proposal for Ignite Bend 9 coming up next month, today is the deadline to do so—submissions will close by about 5pm or so. After that, online voting on all the entries will be opened by Wednesday so you can pick your favorites.

There’s no time like the present! Each presentation is only five minutes and you get 20 slides on the screen (that will automatically rotate every 15 seconds). You can certainly talk about something you’re passionate about for five minutes, right?

(Plus if you’re selected to give an Ignite presentation, you’ll receive a special Mug Revolution hand-thrown coffee mug. I’ve been drinking out of mine nearly every day for that past year and a half.)

Today’s the day—go submit a proposal!
