An invite to BarCamp with free meat!

Monday, March 29th, 2010 at 7:07 pm

One time, at Bar Camp… hold on, what is Bar Camp anyway?

It’s a free (ticket needed) self-organizing un-conference for anyone interested in the digital and online world. All attendees are encouraged to get involved, either giving a presentation or hosting a discussion.

BarCamp Bournemouth 2

Starting at 10am Saturday April 10th and going right through to 4pm Sunday at Bournemouth University (main campus)… it’s also got free meat! …thanks to our kind sponsors, the sat evening buffet and Sunday breakfast are included.

Last time there were sessions from the very technical “web 2.0 applications, introducing MVC with the zend framework” to the controversial “designers vs developers – why can’t we get along?” and the off tangent but impressive “how I built a jet engine in my garage”… discussion panels (including: “digital death, what happens when I die?”), lightening talks of 5x5mins and the charity crowd sourced haircut… some attendees carry on overnight, coding and socialising (the bars open till 11pm). More info on #bcbomo2.

The website says all tickets have now gone, but, we reserved a few for meetdraw folks – sign up at barcampbournemouth.org (ignore the reserve list message) we’d love to see you.

Also follow us on twitter for updates @bcbournemouth (#bcbomo2) Hope to see you there!
