THE DAY'S SCHEDULE: http://barcamp.org/w/page/40365000/BarCampUNC2011-Schedule
REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED
BarCampUNC is an unconference where people interested in a wide range of technologies come together to teach and learn. Unfamiliar with the unconference format? Here's the idea in a nutshell. Rather than having scheduled speakers, everyone pitches sessions the morning of the BarCampUNC. Those sessions are put on a schedule, and lots of little groups form for intense group learning. Everyone is expected to teach, to talk, to participate. Yeah, it's different from a regular conference - but it works!
The idea of an unconference came together when people realized the best times they were having at conferences were the times between sessions - where people with like interests could meet ad hoc. The goal of BarCampUNC is to facilitate this type of interaction for half a day. We supply the food, the space, the projectors - you show up to teach and learn.
