Amit Gupta's Blog: BarCamp NYC — the Nuts and Bolts

    Good, well written recap. Thanks for the links to the sponsor and attendee emails, too. Nicely documented Flickr links. I really liked Neil Squillante's idea of having a track for 5 to 10 minute presentations - maybe we can do this in 2007.

    Amit: this is a great recap, which we will immediately put to use as we put together the Barcamp Dallas happening in less than two weeks. Thanks for all your hard work.

    5-10 minute presentations would have been really nice, as I had two items I wanted to present, both of which could have easily been done in that time-frame, but instead I picked the one I found more interesting and stretched it out a bit to fit the time-slot.

    Anyways, just wanted to thank all of you guys again for all the hard work that went into setting everything up. It was loads of fun and very helpful and informative.

    Amit, awesome post! You inspired me to create that page we discussed that details our budget for the benefit of other potential organizers. http://barcamp.org/index.cgi?BarCampBudget

    Thanks for writing this post. I just finished unorganizing an unconference called PodcasterCon. http://www.podcastercon.org

    I've been meaning to write a step by step on how-to swarm an unconference. It's amazing what can happen when people work together. :) I'm sure BarCamp will be very influential in creating future PodcasterCons. Thanks!
