BarCamp Edmonton

The 4th installment of DemoCamp Edmonton continued on last night at the U of A.  Thanks again to everyone who came out and made it a great night.  Extra thanks as well to Smibs for sponsoring the evening.  This was by far our biggest DemoCamp to date with ~ 150 coming out.  We had 6 great demos again: Odil, Edistorm, ElectionBuddy, TheHistoryBooks, PureInbox, and Grant Skinner.

As usual Mack has a great recap of the evening (cross posted on Techvibes) that you can check out.  If you made a blog post about DemoCamp please add your link to the comments below.

Just a reminder that DemoCamp Edmonton 4 is going to be tomorrow (Wednesday, October 29th) evening, I hope that you will be able to make it out.  DemoCamp is going to take place at 6:30 at the University of Alberta ETLC room E 01 – 017.  You can find a campus map for ETLC here .  After DemoCamp we are once again heading nearby to the Windsor Pub, join everyone there to socialize further.

Also, prior to to DemoCamp, Digital Alberta is going to be holding a session in which Kelley Marples from Rogers is going to come down talk about the iPhone.  If you are interested in checking out that session before DemoCamp it is going to take place at 5:15 in the common’s area the computer science centre at the U of A.  You can find a map to the Computer Science Centre here.  You can find more information about the Digital Alberta event here (note that the event location listed for it it wrong).

I hope to see you all at DemoCamp.  Let me know if you have any questions.  Don’t forget to bring a friend

Thanks to everyone who came out to the last DemoCamp Edmonton.  It was awesome to get the community together again and check out some of the awesome things that people are up to.  As an extra note it was great to see a number of U of A students out at the last event and we are hoping to see more students from both the U of A and some of the colleges in town (NAIT, MacEwan), out at the next one.

On that note…DemoCamp Edmonton 4 is scheduled to take place on October 29th at 6:30 at the U of A ETLC room E1-017.  It will be great to have the community together again and see some more great things that are going on.

As a part of the community building process, we’re looking for people to help spread the word. We’d like to challenge everyone to tell a few people about Democamp and physically bring at least one new person to the event.

Additionally we’re looking for volunteers to help us target different groups of people in a more organized fashion. If you want to help us spread the word to schools, media, demoers or service providers, let us know. We really want to grow a focused team of people to make democamp Edmonton the best it can be.

If you are interested in attending, demoing or helping,  you can find out more information and sign up on the wiki at www.barcamp.org/DemoCampEdmonton4

We’ll see you out on the 29th…
