BarCampTexas

August 27th, 2006 Author: Lindsey Simon

Despite a close call where the original venue pulled out at the last minute, BarCampTexas took place without a hitch at Club Elysium in Austin, TX. The goth bar scene + noon o’clock beer + many caffeinate barcampers was both fun and educational. I heard presentations on search engine optimization, programming in Cocoa, better ways at describing user interface interactions in Visio, and some unique ways to fund ideas. I even took a crack at my presentation on the XSLDataGrid. All in all, it was cozy, initimate, and the spirit of bar camp was in full effect. We attendants are forever in debt to the hard work that Lynn Bender, Whurley, Erica, and Wordlife Productions put in to set up such an awesome un-conference.
