Come to BARcamp Chicago 2010 to learn from and mingle with Chicago's most talented and innovative computer and technology enthusiasts in an impromptu, informal setting.

Here is what we have lined up for you: - Many talks and demos concerning a wide range of technology topics - Socialize with Chicago's top technology enthusiasts - A drunken panel discussion - Geeky/technology related movies that run all night - Free food and drink - BARcompany - Start a business over the weekend - Random other activities Guests from a multitude of backgrounds will be in attendance, including programmers, developers, engineers, tech students, open-source advocates, entrepreneurs and business professionals. Participants are encouraged to share, learn and break off into smaller focus groups, brainstorm and collaborate on any project or idea. Professional networking is highly recommended. Words really cannot describe this event! Take a look at the videos and pictures linked from our website: http://barcampchicago.com/ BARcompany Returning to BARcamp this year is BARcompany, which challenges small groups of participants to come up with an idea and create a company around it in about a day's time. The resulting companies and ideas are presented at the end of the weekend to the conference attendees and to a panel of judges made up of local, influential people in the technology community. The team who organizes the best company has a chance to win prizes which may include server hosting for the developed web application, co-working space and possibly even some start up capital. More Information The event is expected to draw several hundred attendees and is free and open to the public. The majority of talks and activities will be between the hours of 10 AM and 7 PM each day. Complimentary food and beverages will be provided as well as activities on Saturday night through Sunday morning. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Chicago Androids" group.
