    I'm giving my first conference talk in a few weeks.

    I'm hoping it makes people want to talk to me so I don't end up sitting alone during breaks! I have not managed to experience the mythical hallway track that everyone raves about...

    (Another speaker said they're bringing stickers to bribe people - shit why didn't I think of that)

      Tip: put a big note on your closing slide that says "Come and talk to me about this in the hallway".

        Once saw a closing slide that had contact details on it but also: "milk, two sugars"
