LATEST NEWS --
Aggressive planning for BarCampChennai has begun. Ideas are beginning to take shape rather quickly.
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.
The event will be free or very close to free. But there's a catch! All participants must actively participate, give a presentation or help with the organizing of the event.
There is no audience. Only participants! This is unlike any conference you have been to before. It's new, it's different and it's going to happen in our city.
All presentions are scheduled the day they happen. Prepare in advance, but come early to get a slot on the wall.
Presenters are responsible for making sure that notes/slides/audio/video of their presentations are published on the web for the benefit of all and those who can’t be present.
Anyone with something to contribute or with the desire to learn is welcome and invited to join.
