About Your Talk

​Presentation Title *
Why Talks Need Titles: A Story

Track Preference *
In The Weeds (this is about how technology or software X will make Y possible)
​
Abstract (less than 100 words) *
Presentations at conferences are in desperate need of titles.  Without them, how would we ever know what talks are supposed to be about?  I had the most interesting experience trying to submit a talk without a title once... and this is the story about how I quit worrying and learned to embrace the Title. In fact, it's had an amazing impact on my life and that's what this talk is going to be about. Riveting stuff, right?

Presentation Outline (links to draft slides are great too) *
   I. Intro: Titles are Interesting
        a. This one time... I submitted a talk without a title
        b. Nobody knew what it was about
        c. That was bad
    II. Body
        a. So I talked to some people about why titles were important
        b. They helped me out... let me tell you how
        c. This really helped me to understand the importance of titles
    III. Closing
        a. Titles helped change my life
        b. Presentations should always have a title
        c. Thank you and are there any questions?

Has this been presented anywhere else? *
No

If so, when and where?
N/A. This is the first time this talk is being presented
