[asterisk-users] BarCampUSA Tickets go on sale this Thursday the 1st of February 2007
I know most people on the Asterisk list are already aware of Barcamp so skip to the notice below. For those that don't read on. Barcamps traditionally are 'unconferences', meaning there is no set format or agenda apart from turn up on the day and be prepared to participate, people who attend are encouraged to speak or rather 'chair' a session, because as always happens when you get a bunch of smart people in the room, people in the room know as much if not more about a topic as you do and there is no audience or panel separation at barcamp, barcamp is all about participation. These 1 or 2 day events take place in cities around the world and are organized from a general site http://barcamp.org <http://barcamp.org/> You can also read a review of BarcampNY2 that I attended last year http://deancollinsblog.blogspot.com/2006/10/barcampnyc2.html <http://deancollinsblog.blogspot.com/2006/10/barcampnyc2.html> People from all over the world are coming to Wisconsin in August so make sure you are there to participate, learn and enjoy. """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" """""""""""""""""""" On the 23rd of August 2007 one of the most momentous IT events this year will be occurring www.BarCampUSA.org <http://www.barcampusa.org/> For 4 days only from the 23rd to the 26th of August an expected 5-10,000 geeks will be descending on Jefferson, Wisconsin. It has been compared by a number of IT writers already as the 'Woodstock' of the IT world and the tickets haven't even gone on sale yet. Non stop 24 hours a day, for 4 straight days some of the brightest most influential people in IT will be discussing/demo'ing'/networking about what's hot/what's not, what they are working on today and more importantly discussing what's important to them in the future. Discount and other benefits for tickets purchased prior to 1st of May 2007 so purchase from http://www.barcampusa.org/wiki/index.php?title=Tickets from this Thursday. """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" """""""""""""""""""" Want to Advance the Asterisk Cause? During BarcampUSA there will be a 'track' or series of events involving Asterisk. If you are interested in discussing or chairing a particular talk please go to www.barcampusa.org/wiki/index.php?title=Asterisk and register your interest or email me with BarCampUSA in the subject.
