How Much Does it Cost?
BarCamp Saskatoon is free. However, if you plan to attend you need to sign up so we know how many people are attending. Everyone who signs up before Oct. 13 will get a free BarCamp Saskatoon t-shirt. We also ask for a small donation, for those who can afford it, to cover some expenses ($5 to $10, depending on what you can afford).

How do I Sign Up?
If you want to attend, you must register.
Let us know what topics you are interested in hearing or talking about by emailing us, or if you are comfortable using Wiki software, you can edit this page and add your ideas to the "Talk" or "Hear" sections, below.
Ideas - What Do You Want to Hear or Talk About?
At BarCamp, anyone can present. Presenting is actively encouraged. Talks can be as short or as long as you like. You can use slides, a web connection, or forgo slides altogether. Talks can be technical or non-technical.
The Barcamp ethos is about sharing information. There is no overriding theme to the conference. If you've been to a BarCamp before this will make sense, if not, come and check it out! If you would like to talk you can either sign-up below or sign-up on the day.
