Doing a keynote is a lot of work - the peer review alone is brutal. And we work hard on getting our INFILTRATE keynote speakers to present a unique vision and perspective on our business, community, or overall strategy. Usually, I personally call in favors from people I know or friends of friends, and we sweeten the pot by not charging former keynoters for tickets for all future INFILTRATES, which I think is a fair trade. :)
So I have a shortlist for this year - but one of the tenets of the INFILTRATE keynote is highlighting the unheard voices in our community. >From Thomas Lim to Nate Fick to Matt Tait - I think we've done a good job of predicting the zeitgeist. So if you think you, or someone you know, would be willing to put the work into doing a good talk, has a unique perspective, and is not afraid of standing in front of the best hackers in the world for an hour to explain it, please put me in touch with them! -dave
