Congratulations again Conrad! you’ve blown open a door on the human interface & connected some exceptional people together. Looking 4wd to the next gathering.. will be there 4sho’
[...] Recently our Capetonian neighbours held BarCamp Cape Town, and by the sound of things it was a rip-roaring success (read Conrad’s succint round-up and linkage here). Inspired in part by their efforts and the ever-nearing reality of BarCamp Earth (being held at the end of this month), a few of us Jo’burgers have clubbed together to organise BarCamp JOZI ‘06! Rah rah! BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering (or “unconference“) 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. [...]
[...] Earlier this year, Tectonic reported on preparations for the massively successful BarCamp Cape Town (see some pics; roundup). Now geeks in Johannesburg and Durban are following suit. [...]
[...] To celebrate this utterly glorious summer playground our theme is: What’s HOT. So prepare to come and share hot tech tools, toys and tweaks that you’ve been using this year, or what you’re looking forward to next year (…and DAMN it’s gonna be a hot one for geeks next year!). Ever closer to my now infamous tag that “the geek shall inherit the earth”
