What is BarCamp?
BarCamp เป็นเครือข่ายของการจัดประชุมระดับนานาชาติในแบบ "unconference" ซึ่งมีลักษณะพิเศษคือ เป็นการประชุมแบบเปิดกว้าง ไม่จำกัดผู้เข้าร่วม เนื้อหาทุกอย่างมาจากผู้เข้าร่วม ทุกคนเป็นทั้งผู้พูดและผู้ฟัง ส่วนใหญ่จะเน้นความสนใจไปที่เว็บใหม่ไฟแรง เทคโนโลยีใหม่ล่าสุด โปรโตคอลใหม่ ๆ หรือรูปแบบข้อมูลแปลก ๆ รายละเอียดเพิ่มเติมลองอ่านใน BarCamp (วิกิพีเดีย)
What is BarCampBangkok?
BarCampBangkok จะเป็น BarCamp สองภาษา ไทยและอังกฤษ แล้วแต่สะดวก เรายินดีต้อนรับผู้มาเยือนจากทั่วทุกมุมโลก การพูดคุยจะเลือกใช้ภาษาที่เหมาะสมแล้วแต่สถานการณ์ การดำเนินงานทั้งหมดจะเป็นแนว BarCamp ที่เน้นด้านเทคโนโลยี อินเทอร์เน็ต อุปกรณ์ การวิจัย งานประจำ หรืออะไรก็ได้ที่คิดว่าน่าสนใจ
