BarCamp is an unConference, organized on the fly by attendees, for attendees. There is no registration fee, but you don't just attend a BarCamp -- you can participate in discussions, demo your projects, or join into another cooperative event. Topics may include, but are not limited to: open source software, startups, UI design, entrepreneurship, AJAX, hardware hacking, robotics, mobile computing, bioinformatics, RSS, Social Software, programming languages, and the future of technology. There will be a software development contest. The winning team gets a helicopter ride with Phil Greenspun as pilot. There will be lots of other fun activities day and night throughout the conference. Please note that BarCamp has nothing to do with Booze. There will be absolutely no alcoholic beverages on site.

Car Parking is available for free in the MIT East Lot next to the Stata Center, as well as other MIT lots.
