What Is It?
BarCamp is a new kind of technology "unconference" - organized by attendees, for attendees. It's an open, welcoming event for geeks to hang out with wifi and smash their brains together. It's about love and geekery and having a focal point for great ideas.
Attendees are strongly encouraged to give a demo, a session, or help with one. You can help by taking notes on the wiki, blogging the event, helping to promote the event, or helping with logistics.
