Wed, 17 May 2006 05:26:39 +0000 http://www.thomaspurves.com/?p=15#comment-23 [...] For some time I’ve been messing with the ideas organizing a next generation slam camp, one that’s extended in format and one that gets down to building on some ideas or even seed funds them. (see 8 Ideas for the future of Barcamp). Guinine VC participation could be just the catalyst to get this idea off the ground. Or so I was thinking.

(surprised?) We discussed the future of BarCamp/TorCamp/DemoCamp, now known simply as “BarCamp Toronto”. While some of these ideas have been floating around for a while, Tom helpfully summarizes them all in one place for us.

Mon, 24 Apr 2006 15:15:44 +0000 http://www.thomaspurves.com/?p=15#comment-6 [...] DemoCamp 4 ignited a fair bit of buzz about how to grow the tech community in the Toronto area. David Crow chronicled some of that and issued a call for comment here. Many other people replied back to my DemoCamp 4 trip report. And other folks like Mark Kuznicki, Thomas Purves and Rob Hyndman have been adding their thoughts to the mix too. Good stuff.
