Philly gets ignited, again
Ignite 7Ignite Philly 7 was last night, good thing I got my ticket a week in advance because it was sold out as usual. IgnitePhilly is part of a global series of Ignite events that allows anyone to present about anything inspiring, but in 5 minutes or less. Lots of ignite events are organized around the world. The presentations in Philly usually revolve around new initiatives happening in the city, cool projects people are working on, or personal pursuits that people want to share. At this event presenters spoke about new plans to develop the Delaware River Waterfront, the Franklin Institute's upcoming Science Fair, Dr. Physick's Soda Pop, Code for America, and Lorem Ipsum and why designers shouldn't use it (that was a particular favorite). Ignite Philly has always been a great place to make contacts about MID projects, or share them with others, or just find out about great things happening in Philadelphia.
