FW: [newtech-1] RE: [nextNY] BarCamp NYC - kicking off again

[Dean Collins]

Who's going to go and post the "Open Moko" topic for BarCampNYC3?

 

It's only just been announced and there isn't even a date set yet but
lets make sure we get a really big showing from the Open Moko users so
we can spread the word about this really cool technology.

Whoo Hooo I've been dieing for BarCampNYC 3

For those of you that didn't make it to BarCampNYC 2 here is a blog post
with my perspective of the event
http://deancollinsblog.blogspot.com/2006/10/barcampnyc2.html It was
fantastic and cant wait for the next one (unfortunately I'm in Chicago
next week so wont be able to attend the planning session but will be
happy to assist in finding some sponsorship funding when the time is
right).

As a way of kicking things off I spent about 30 minutes putting together
the http://barcamp.org/BarCampNYC3 start page and made the first
donation of $100.

Great job for stepping up Rachel.

I've been talking to a few people over the last few weeks about Barcamp
NYC 3.  Hopefully many of you know about this or have attended in the
past.  If not, take a look round barcamp.org to get the flavour.   After
the first successes, it's about time New York had another ;)

As it is easier to kick-start this with a face-to-face, I'm suggesting
two meeting times for the next week to pull people together and move
from there.  

Session 1: 2pm Sunday 19 August.   Meet north-west corner of Bryant
park, inside park. (corner of 42nd and 6th)
Session 2: 6pm Wednesday Wednesday 22 August. Meet north-west corner of
Bryant park, inside park. (corner of 42nd and 6th) 

Two sessions will hopefully mean that people can make 1of them.  I'll
make both to co-ordinate initial volunteers.

Jobs to be done include (but not limited to)

*	co-ordination
*	sponsorship 
*	venue
*	food sourcing
*	budget management
*	equipment management
*	Logo design
*	T-shirt obtaining
*	set up people 


If you want to be involved in the organising, come to one of the
sessions (If you can't make the sessions, let me know which area you'd
like to work in).   If you want to be involved but don't have the time
to work in the planning, we also look for volunteers on the day to help
set things up, a little bit of wrangling and then close everything down.


regards

Rachel
