I can't believe that I forgot to blog about Ignite Portland 3. It is being held on June 18th at the Bagdad Theater again. The lineup looks something like this:
5:30 Doors Open
6:00 Registration & Networking
7:00 Presentations Wave 1
* What is Ignite?

8:50 Networking
9:30 Go Home! (or adjourn to the bar for further networking)
I believe that the "presale" tickets (admission is free, but there was a way to reserve a seat) are gone, but general admission is still available on a first-come-first-served basis.
I'll be getting out of work an hour or two early that day, then walking or taking the #14, depending on the weather.
