Submissions are for Lightning Session slots, each of which is 25  
minutes in duration around a single topic. Single or duo speakers are  
allowed, but no panels, please. Please submit only one idea per  
person. There are 14 open Lightning Session slots. Lightning Session  
speakers will receive free admission to the conference.

Submissions are easy: a title, abstract, and bio are all that is  
necessary. Submit your idea here:

Topics for Lightning Sessions can be around anything relating to the  
field of interaction design--anything focused on the behavior of  
products and services in response to human action. Our potential  
attendees are particularly interested in tactical, practical  
information around methods, prototyping techniques, documentation,  
mobile, physical computing and information visualization. We are  
interested in fields related to Interaction Design (e.g., Information  
Architecture, Visual and Industrial Design, Coding etc), but only as  
they relate to interaction design.

Lightning Session speakers will be determined by the IxDA Conference  
Committee and announced on October 31, 2007.

Thanks, and see you in Savannah!
