Bar Camp Austin - March 11th, 2006

 

 

The IRC channel for the event is now active at #barcampaustin

 

UPDATE: BarCampAustin Chris Messina has finished an amazing poster that is now at the print shop!

UPDATE: BarCampAustin is being held at the Thistle Café on 6th and Lavaca. Check out the photos of the venue!

UPDATE: BarCampAustin would like to thank Duncan Hopkins for creating our logo!

 

What is BarCampAustin? Think of it as a way to get the tech/geek community together in Austin during one of the coolest music and media events of the year; SXSW. Non-Austin equivalents? Well, Dallas beat us to it (not sure how that happened) but think: Usenix? SXSW Interactive? Burning Man? BarCampPaloAlto? Only one thing is certain: It's up to you to decide. The most important thing you should take away from the event? Relationships with other geeks!

 

Help us promote BarCampAustin!

When

What is it?

 

(As stolen from BarCampNYC, as copied from...) BarCamp is an ad-hoc un-conference born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos and interaction from attendees. All attendees must give a demo, a session, or help with one.

 

Anyone with something to contribute or with the desire to learn is welcome and invited to join.

 

When you come, be prepared to share with barcampers. When you leave, be prepared to share it with the world.
