Mash Pit Dallas
Where
INFOMART 1950 Stemmons Freeway, Suite 2013 (for directions or information call 214.550.2002 or 214.550.2003)
What is BarCampDallas? Think of it as a way to get the tech/geek community together in Dallas. Non-Dallas equivalents? Think: Usenix? SXSW Interactive? Burning Man? BarCampPaloAlto? Only one thing is certain: It's up to you to decide. The most important thing you should take away from the event? Relationships with other geeks in Dallas!
We still need a few folding tables. Call 214.550.2003 and let us know how many you can bring.
When
Saturday, Jan 28th, 2006, with an official start at 10am (get there early to get a good presentation slot!) and an offical end of "as late as it goes".

Topic:
Ideas:
- Job Listing Research Service - get the dirt on the employer, recent news stories, search engine ranking, blog references, legal cases (keyword scan on search results), etc.
- HurricaneHelp -- are your neighbors leaving/boarding up/getting supplies/sipping cocktails & not worrying? Best, open evac routes. Updated weater info aggregated. Where to buy supplies. Official news. Community board -- who needs a ride, who needs medicine/plywood, etc. api in the next peoplefinder. (goal of the app is aggregate community intelligence about the storm and help people make better decisions & get one stop access to online storm resources) I put out a lazyweb request for such an app here.
- Indeed for garage sales. Find items by keyword. Tag sales. Map locations & build itinerary for the day. IM/sms updater for availability. flicksream for actual images of the items when you get there. Build teams of object mavens. (Is this a great deal for this record, set of dishes, etc.?) Port in online info about the items. Backpack it for later.
