Afterward we are all going to head nearby to RATT for some drinks and to hang out and socialize further.  It is going to be a great time to meet some new people and catch up with others.

For more information check out the DemoCamp 11 page.  We’re looking forward to seeing everyone there!  Please help spread the word and bring a friend!

I hope that the first few steps into 2010 has been great for everyone, and what better way to welcome in 2010 then with DemoCamp Edmonton 10.  Our next DemoCamp is set to take place on January 27th at 6:30 on the University campus ETLC Room E1-017.

It’s shaping up to be a very interesting DemoCamp with a wide range of demos, including 3 from local games companies.  The demo list right now is:
CIE
BookThatBet
Willowglen
CrazedCoders
MotionVoter
Max Gaming

We are looking forward to seeing you there.  Don’t forget to help spread the word and bring a friend.

See you Thursday!

It looks like it’s shaping up to be another great DemoCamp and it will be aweseome to have the community back together.  For this DemoCamp we have tried to engage the games community that we have here in Edmonton and a few of the demos are going to be from people working on games projects here in the city.

It’s been really awesome to see the DemoCamp community grow and that has been due to the passionate and engaged community that we have here in the city.  Please help our community continue to expand by spreading the word about democamp and coming out and meeting a few new people.

You can follow the conversation around DemoCamp Edmonton on Twitter with the tag #democampyeg

Please help us spread the word about DemoCamp by telling you friends and co-workers and bringing someone who hasn’t been out to DemoCamp before and help us keep the community growing.

NOTE: In order to attend you must sign up.  There are a limited number of spots available.  Due to the venue we only have room for 110 people.

What is BarCamp?

Barcamp is an ad-hoc gathering of people in and interested in the Edmonton tech community. BarCamp is a series of loosely scheduled 20 minute presentations/discussions about whatever the community is interested in.

How it works?

Everyone shows up in the morning and people write their name on a block of time with a topic, idea, whatever, that want to present, discuss, learn, etc. Everyone should have a topic in mind they’d like to lead a discussion on. Each session is only 20 minutes so you don’t have to prepare a big speech or PPT. The sessions should be interactive allowing for the audience to be a part of the discussion.  You don’t have to present in order to attend.  It’s more that you come expecting to participate and interact with people and presentations at the event.  Everyone has great thoughts and ideas and we’re hoping that people will share those with each other.

Every 1/2 hr a new session starts and goes for 20 minutes followed by 10 minutes of hallway talk and deciding on your next session.

How much does BarCamp cost?

Nothing. Free. Nadda. BarCamp is a sponsored event.  Lunch and drinks will be provided as well.

Who should come?

You! Everyone! No matter what you interest in technology we can almost guarantee there will be something that you will find interesting, or someone that you will find interesting to talk to.

What are people going to be talking about?

We are planning on having three different presentation rooms, as well as a couple of discussion rooms/areas, a “business” room, a “tech” room, and a “misc” room. Ultimately the topics will be whatever the community want them to be.

What should I bring?

Whatever you want. We are arranging wifi so that you will be able to bring your laptops if you like. Also bring whatever other gadgets you want to talk about, show off, etc. Have a new iPhone, Arduino, Lego Mindstorms, whatever: bring it, play with it, show it off. Or bring nothing at all. Whatever you like.

Looking forward to seeing you all there.  Our last DemoCamp had 140+ people out and we are looking to grow the community even more.  Please help us spread the word by inviting friends, colleagues, or anyone else you think might be interested.

As always please help spread the word and bring a friend.

As with the last DemoCamp we are asking everyone to help spread the word about the event and keep help keep the community growing.  Please pass on the information to anyone that might be interested and bring someone new with you (or two, or three…).  If you would like to sign up to attend, present, or would like more information about DemoCamp, check out:

We’re looking forward to seeing you all at DemoCamp Edmonton 5.  If you have any questions feel free to fire me off an email.  Thanks to everyone who has come out and gotten involved this past year.  We’ve seen our first 4 DemoCamps, and our first BarCamp as well as the tech community in Edmonton as a whole continue to grow.  Let’s keep this community going and make 2009 even better than 2008.

Have a merry Christmas and a great New Years.  Get ready for an awesome 2009.
