factoryjoe: ok

1:20pm factoryjoe: so

1:20pm factoryjoe: barcamp earth

1:20pm factoryjoe: here's the general idea

1:20pm factoryjoe: to have as many simultaneous barcamps around the world as possible on the 1 year anniversary

1:20pm factoryjoe: we already have a bunch planned

1:20pm dantekgeek_: factoryjoe: can you email me?

1:20pm dantekgeek_: I gotta go

1:20pm dantekgeek_: change of gate

1:20pm dantekgeek_: ttyl

1:21pm dantekgeek_ left the chat room.

1:21pm factoryjoe: ah k

1:21pm factoryjoe: doh

1:21pm factoryjoe: i need to blog the idea

1:21pm jakedahn: factoryjoe: soo.. go on?

1:21pm jakedahn: yeah cause it sounds like a cool idea

1:21pm jakedahn: (so far)

1:21pm factoryjoe: and so

1:21pm factoryjoe: places around the world are already tuned in

1:21pm factoryjoe: so that's cool

1:22pm factoryjoe: but what i've been trying to do

1:22pm factoryjoe: is get all the big tech firms in the valley to host their own barcamps organized by employees but open to the public

1:22pm jakedahn: hmm, on the same day(s) ?

1:22pm factoryjoe: for example, i've got reps at microsoft, google, apple, yahoo and stanford (not a tech firm of course) all pushing this idea forward

1:22pm factoryjoe: yes

1:22pm factoryjoe: same weekend

1:23pm factoryjoe: i want tents all over silicon valley

1:23pm jakedahn: haha

1:23pm jakedahn: sounds like a plan, you know the people, pretty sure it could go down quite well

1:23pm jakedahn: you'd make national news!

1:23pm jakedahn: lol

1:23pm factoryjoe: well

1:23pm factoryjoe: barcamp would

1:24pm jakedahn: yeah

1:24pm factoryjoe: i just want to see it happen!

1:24pm jakedahn: so each tech firm would organize themselves?

1:24pm jakedahn: or would you have a group of people to kind of help steer things in the right direction for them all

1:26pm jakedahn: I think you have an idea for "ValleyCamp" but I think world camp would be a much bigger event to setup

1:27pm jakedahn: ValleyCamp = 10-20 camps at the same time, WorldCamp = 50-100 camps at the same time, and if it was world camp, there would be campers up every hour for 48 hours throughout the planet

1:27pm factoryjoe: ah i like the name!

1:27pm jakedahn: would be amazing

1:27pm factoryjoe: we'll do a valleycamp as part of BCE
