Planning
BarCamp is committed to keeping planning transparent and simple. Our planning wiki is at BarCampLA-4 Planning
Why should I do this?
To learn, meet people who share different interests, contribute, and push yourself and your thinking.
Schedule
Saturday October 6th, 2007
- We're trying something a lil different this time. Think of this as the LA Geek Carnival day. Showcase your group, interest, or project with a booth (ok, table, but you can be as elaborate as you'd like) at BarCampLA-4. Be sure to coordinate with others so you can have time to walk around and mix, mingle with all the other fun groups there. Sign up for a spot here - BarCampLA-4 Booths
Sunday October 7th, 2007
- back to BarCamp as usual, so polish up your talks, take a spot on the wall, and get up there! Already know what you want to talk about? Add it here - BarCampLA-4 Sessions. This is also a great place to add topics you want to learn about.

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.
Help Us Get the Word Out!
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 presentations 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.
