BarCamp Philly 2

vimeo barcamp

Had a great time at BarCamp Philly 2.  Even better than last year.  My Links as Language talk went over like gangbusters and I attended some cool sessions and met some cool people.  One speaker, Angel Pizzaro, took it upon himself to interview every speaker he could get his hands on, including yours truly.  He compiled it in this video.  I’m at about 15 minutes, 26 seconds in.

Check out this time-lapse of the session board getting filled out at the beginning of the day.  If you’ve never been to a BarCamp, what you’re seeing is everyone arriving, writing down what they want to talk about on an index card, and posting it on the wall in a particular room/time slot.  Thus the schedule for the day is created.  Still love how low-tech-fully that is handled.
