You heard enough from me about BarCamp already. Time to let others do the talking.

Going Like Sixty:

Of all the places I expected to find minimal structure for a gathering of like minded individuals, it would be at Barcamp Nashville. Instead I found just another seminar.

Kat Coble:

I liked what I experienced–but I don’t think I experienced a BarCamp.

mushin no shin:

BeerCamp was fun. At least the parts I remember were fun — I did have a little beer. OK, a lot of beer. Too much beer. Did I mention there was beer? Well, beer AND a ludicrous amount of heat, prompting rapid consumption of said beer.

Newscoma:

The one thing that struck me is that there is so much I don’t know. This world is changing. This medium is changing so quickly on the digital, technological plane. I didn’t “grow up” in this world, so me going to BarCamp was completely me walking out of my “comfort zone.”

I’m glad I did, but on a more serious note, there is so much to learn. I’m a little intimidated by that.

ghia:

I really look forward to integrating some of the things I learned into shopghia.com. While ghia is a commercial enterprise for me, I also look at it as an opportunity to educate people about fair trade products and have a dialogue about social responsibility and shopping.

Chris Wage:

I know there’s some bad blood between some folks and all, but raise your hand if you don’t kinda have a crush on Penelope Trunk? No? Yes? Okay, maybe it was just me.

SuperWonderBang:

David Owens really took it to another level with some thought-provoking questions of beauty and attraction.

Lake Neuron:

BarCamp was great fun, and informative to boot.

Aunt B:

Folks, the people they had talking were cool and enthusiastic about what they were doing and excited and thoughtful and all, but it was so f**king hot that I just sat there getting hotter and more uncomfortable and pissier and angrier and hotter until finally I just wanted to take my chair and beat someone, anyone with it.

Hit the Back Button to Move Fwd:

thanks to the sponsors, it was way cool. erin & i were glad to be a part of it and it was well worth our time in the sometimes too hot exit-in.

WonderDawg has pictures up on flickr.

Geek Thoughts:

Now having you as friends in Facebook doesn’t feel as much like a loser ploy to just stack it with people that i am just aware of, but people who are actually friends

David Sidlinger:

I presented at BarCamp Nashville this afternoon about Haml and Sass. I think that it went OK considering I had a root canal yesterday, authored my slides under the influence of painkillers, and there wasn’t a way to connect my MacBook to the projector (I only have the DVI dongle.)

John Willis:

I opened the session with this question “How many people in the audience have ever worked with an enterprise system management products?” When no one raised their hands I knew this was going to be a tough gig.

Rob at thinktrain recaps one of the best points from Mitch Joel’s presentation:

This shift in conversation is attitudinal, not generational.

Oh, and there’s lots more pictures at flickr.

And there’s also the BarCamp twitter page, which provided a running commentary all day long.

More as I find them.
