I'm one of the organizers working on the second BarCamp in Grand
Rapids; when we did the first one last year none of the organizers had
ever been to a BarCamp before. I'd like to attend another BarCamp in
the area just to broaden my BarCamp experience. Right now I'm hoping
to attend the Chicago BarCamp, but I'll also be keeping an eye on Ann
Arbor. I'd love to see some cross-pollination of ideas between these
area BarCamps.
Good luck in pulling together the details!

We're proud to announce our second BarCamp (dangerously close to being
"annual"). BarCamp is a technology & design unconference where the
campers (you) determine what's on the schedule. These ad-hoc
unconferences are intense events with discussions, demos, and a chance
to interact with fellow attendees. Anyone with something to contribute
or with the desire to learn is welcome and invited to participate.
WHEN: Friday evening, July 20 and Saturday, July 21
WHERE: Calvin College
COST: Free! But everyone is encouraged to present something and be
involved, even if you're never given a talk before.
WHAT: So far, topics ranging from opensource business to the JQuery
Javascript library to next generation communications. Ultimately each
camper has an opportunity to help determine the content.
