What is it?

A meeting of smart people in a bar, to discuss smart stuff. The format is a stage, a projector and an open schedule for smart people to present something to the other smart people. Or, you can just sit around and drink. I think it's important that it should be in a place that has beer. And I think that tech companies that want atract smart people to work for them should come and pay for a lot of the beers that the smart people drink. It's only right. The first BarCampNashville is being planned for the Summer of 2007.

 

To quote the BarCampOttawa3 page:

 

"Anyone with something to contribute or with the desire to learn is welcome and invited to join. When you come, be prepared to share with barcampers. When you leave, be prepared to share it with the world.

 

Questions? Check out the google groups mailing list at: http://groups.google.com/group/barcamp/ or just post them in the "Questions" section at the bottom of this page."

 

 

When & Where

Don't know yet. Working on it.

 

Format

  • Casual & interactive

 

Scheduled Sessions

Barcamp is about participation and discussion. Below is a schedule if you'd like to present - to add yours (Click Edit Page & Log On). We'll have projectors, screens & white boards. Bring a laptop, memory stick or what ever you need to illustrate your points - OpenOffice or PowerPoint decks, Demos', code snippets or what ever - to engage participants.

 

Sessions are 40 minutes, but with an active audience, probing insights and both you and the audience involved in Q&A a 15 or so minute presentation is all that needed to start the discussion.

Anyone interested in something for Nashville, TN. I live in Kentucky, but would drive to Nashville for this.

 

 

Yup. I'm at SXSW right now (3/10/07) and just left the BarCamp there. I'm totally thinking about doing a barcamp in Nashville. Met some of the core team and I think I'll have some help.
