*Intro: *BarCamp is an un-conference; An open format event where programmers, designers and business owners can network and learn. A BarCamp conference is unlike any other technology conference. Rather than being planned by a committee in advance, each community works together to create its own event. A BarCamp generally has an underlying theme, but the individual topics and sessions are organized shortly before or even at the event. This enables BarCamp to be much more than targeted to the needs of the Madison community. *
Information: *Visit the BarCampMadison2 Website http://barcampmadison2.org to find out more information about the conference. Please make sure to registerhttp://barcampmadison2.org/signupso we know how many people to expect.
