Let's go camping! but just a wee bit different...
The BarCamp was what happens when a handful of geeks decide they want to do a conference their own way. The result was an open grid for signing up impromptu presentations, breakout sessions popping up in hallways and at the coffee machine, and people setting up a temporary workspace where the writing of their code can be assisted by all kinds of newly met experts.
Everyone was welcome to show up and sign up for a presentational time slot. The Amsterdam Barcamp # 1 was graced by Plazes, Drupal, Bryght, Jabber and AnyMeta.
