What do people do at BarCamp?
(Taken from other BarCamp pages)
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 should 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.

Notes from Meeting 1 - 08 Jan 2009
Miccheng: Sorry for my absence in the last meeting.
Just a few points:
1) Venue
- Does Meng's condo have sufficient power points / internet bandwidth to accomodate all 400 pple?
- I can prob check with Microsoft Auditorium at NTUC Center to see if their venue is available on those days. We'll need plenty of rooms and MS can probably accomodate us.
2) Format
- We can prob have 2-3 tracks (we do have 3 days) - 2 Invited speakers tracks and 1 "Free for all, any topic, first come first serve basis" speakers track.
- It might be good to have some "focal point" kinda activities at strategic points of the 2 days to consolidate the crowd and rebuild momemtum (eg. magic show after lunch, music session by a local band, etc). Make it more like a fiesta than a "conference".
Anyways, it sounds like lotsa fun. Keep me informed. Will get my PHP User Group involved.
Please join the mailing list: pitchers-sg at google groups (Pitching the (bar)CAMP... get it? :D)
I will help with sponsorship of this event (Bill Claxton). Will try to enlist some of the SiTF companies.
Bill Claxton added a page to discuss programming.
