"How is a wiki different from a blog?" etc, and panelists each get 30 seconds to give a real or fake, but convincing, definition of it. Audience votes. Need airhorn....

Questions
- Do I have to come with a presentation? Not necessarily. Barcamp is about participation. And a presentation can be about a lot of things. Demo a new product. Share a methodology. Participate in a panel. Suggest a topic. Make jello shots, host werewolf or bring your Wii and some games.
Planning
BarCamp is committed to keeping planning transparent and simple. Our planning wiki is at BarcampLA-3 Planning
Get Blogging!
Here's the boiler plate:
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. 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.
Pick a flavor of blog badge, and Voila!
