* Make the podium laptop desktop background a plain color with good contrast. After every group of presenters clean off the desktop to keep it quicker and easier for presenters to find their slides.
* Put someone at the front of the room who is responsible for helping presenters with the presenter computer.
* Most people use Mac laptops, so if there is only one podium computer, it should be a Mac.
** Ideally, both a Mac and a Windows computer should be available.
** Several presenters had trouble with not being able to see what was being presented -- the podium computer(s) should be mirrored by default.
* Consider precombining lightning talks into a single slide deck to keep the flow going.
* Consider live closed captioning software for talks and streaming
