Talk Proposals Are Hard

I’m writing up three proposals for the O’Reilly Web 2.0 conference. I think the content is compelling enough but I’m not overly hopeful that any will be accepted because it turns out I really struggle with writing session abstracts. This is actually the first conference I’ve submitted proposals too so hopefully I’ll get better (and faster!) at it with a bit more practice. In a lot of ways I’m actually more interested in just getting practice at submitting proposals than actual speaking at the conference – the timing of the conference is bad, but can be worked around.

That said, if any of them are accepted I’d be pretty happy to start getting some speaking experience and sharing some of the cool stuff we do at Ephox.
