What is BarCamp?
BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos and interaction from participants.
BarCamp is defined by Wikipedia as follows:
"…an international network of user generated conferences ― open, participatory workshop-events, whose content is provided by participants ― often focusing on early-stage web applications, and related open source technologies, social protocols, and open data formats."
http://barcampcharlotte.com/ is built on BuddyPress, a brand new multi-user publishing platform from WordPress. The site is worth checking out for that reason alone… if you're into that sort of thing. :-)
