Welcome to BarCamp Little Rock

BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering 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 participants.

BarCamp Little Rock is a combination party and educational event. Get together with fellow technologists and talk about whatever floats your boat--open source software, design, networking, systems administration, GIS, programming, or hardware, or anything awesome.

The deal is that if you'd like to come, try to either:

a) come up with a really informal 20-minute presentation about something that interests you, or

b) get into discussions and ask a lot of questions.

This is, at its heart, a really chill technology conference, and we'd like to have some of the knowledge you have in your head. So don't stress about presenting or contributing, but do try to do it.

It's October 11, 11a-7p, at the Flying Saucer in Little Rock, AR. We're starting at 11 so out-of-towners won't have to drive down the night before.

Sponsorship!

11a-7p or so
Downstairs at the Flying Saucer
323 President Clinton Avenue
Little Rock, AR

2 rooms, a few wireless networks, a lot of space, and we'll have some coffee and snacky foods around lunchtime. If you want to hang around after 7, we'll see what we can do :)

Now to get the rest of the stuff we need: projectors and t-shirts come to mind. Luckily I've still got some time ;)

Getting our interest check on

A few geeks are getting together to make something beautiful--a barcamp for Little Rock, Arkansas.

The roadmap looks something like this:

1) Interest check, and letting geeks of all flavors know about it
2) Finding sponsors
3) Finding a venue & working with logistics
4) Having a blast!

We're thinking an informal gathering of techies is going to be a hell of a good time (just as good as it was at barcamptexas, in fact).
