BarCamp is an Unconference
25 Jul2008
I know most of you are new to BarCamp and here I am introducing a new term.
According to Wikipedia
Unconference
An unconference is a facilitated, face-to-face, and participant-driven conference centered around a theme or purpose. The term “unconference” has been applied, or self-applied, to a wide range of gatherings that try to avoid one or more aspects of a conventional conference, such as high fees and sponsored presentations.
Some rules of Unconference are
- Everyone is a participant.
Everyone attending contribute in one way or another.
- Law of two feet.
If you are neither learning nor contributing to an unconference’s discussion, use your Two Feet to move respectfully to another discussion where you can make a difference.
For more info on Law of Two Feet visit http://www.e27.sg/e27-guide/law-of-two-feet/
So now you are briefed. See you tomorrow morning at Barcamp Malaysia!
