One of the key challenges around the open web is that while many people use the internet, and like that ''notion'' that it is open, few people understand what the Open Web actually ''means''. We are looking for dynamic and engaging presentations that explain what the open web means so that everyone, your mom, your dad, your colleagues, your friends, can understand what the open web is, and why it should matter to them.

The presentation challenge will use two formats:
 
1. Piggy-back presentations (present – April 2010):<br>
Drumbeat Community members are encouraged to give a talk at a local barcamp, ignite, school or community event. It need not be a tech event. They then upload slides and a video of their talk to the internet, and submit links to the Drumbeat site.
 
2. Dedicated-events (late 2009 / early 2010):<br>
An dedicated event or session is organized where 6 - 10 Drumbeat Challenge talks are given. These events are a contest in themselves -- one 'best of show' award is given for each category. Slides and videos are then uploaded and links provided to the Drumbeat site.
 
Once a presentation is uploaded, it will be entered into a contest for best presentation. People behind the most promising presentations will also have a '''chance to participate in the Drumbeat Festival''', tentatively scheduled for June 2010 in Amsterdam.
