Mark Fowler gives some tips on presenting lightning talks. "Lightning talks are a great way to start speaking, but they do come with their own potential problems. Even the seasoned presenter makes mistakes when presenting and has had lightning talks go horribly, horribly wrong.

However, there are a few things you can consider when writing your talk that will prevent you from sabotaging your own talk before it even begins."
