May WordPress Meetup: Lightning talks!

For May's meetup, like we did last August (https://www.meetup.com/wordpressdc/events/224309932/), we're doing lightning talks.

For those not familiar, a "lightning" talk (as the name might imply) is a talk delivered in about 5 minutes. If you have a relevant topic you'd like to share with the group, this is a great opportunity to do so.

It's important to note that it does not have to be a development-related talk. Topics related to business, marketing, entrepreneurship, design, content strategy, publishing, or really anything that a WordPress meetup go-er would find interesting...are all more than welcome.

We're aiming to have about 5-6 talks, which will give speakers time for about a 5 minute presentation with room for a brief round of questions each, along with our usual networking and social time.

If you're interested in speaking, please get in touch with the organizers by sending a message over Meetup.com. It's totally fine if you have never spoken at a meetup before.

We'll update this description with new talks as they are confirmed.
