The crew over at BarCampCalgary.com announced the upcoming 10th edition of DemoCampCalgary on September 25th. It's all going down at Melrose Cafe & Bar (17th Ave & 7th St SW) at 6:30pm.
More about DemoCamp (I stole this text from their site http://barcampcalgary.com/about-democamp/):
What is DemoCamp?
It’s an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share
and learn in an open environment. It’s typically a monthly event, and
features 4 live demos, followed by discussion and interaction from
participants. DemoCamps typically last between 1.5 and 2 hours.
What do you mean by ad-hoc?
Volunteers collaborate to create “unconferences”, where the focus is
on building community. You can help out by telling your friends about
the event, and asking interesting companies to present at a DemoCamp.
Does it cost anything to attend?
No, but please pay for your food and drinks and tip your servers generously.
Sounds cool. What are the Rules?
There aren’t a lot of rules, but the rules we have are set in stone.
Rule #1: You must talk about DemoCamp. Tell your friends, and bring someone interesting to the next event.
Rule #2: No powerpoint or slideshow allowed. Why no .ppt? Well, do you have working software or don’t you?
Rule #3: Demos are not a second over 10 minutes each. Short and sweet! And follow with Q&A for about 3-4 minutes max.
Rule #4: There are no rules. We’ll continue to do what’s right for the community.
Hope to see you all there!
