Among the new programs debuting at SC|05 in Seattle will be "Scatter/Gather," a daily series of 10-minute talks open to anyone registered for the technical program. Essentially an "Open Mic for techies," these sessions will provide an opportunity to present brief summaries of new or ongoing work or even just the outline of an idea. Look for the sign-up sheets near the registration area - but don't delay because slots are limited and it's first-come, first-served. Be forewarned, too: The 10-minute time limit will be strictly enforced and will include all setup time. So, if you plan to use a laptop projector, come to the session early so you're ready to start on time.
