How 'Bout BeerCamp?
If you think it's just all fun, games and venture capital in Silicon Valley, you're probably right. Check out Winecamp, an "ad hoc, un-conference" (wonder if Tara Hunt or Riya, which sponsored the event, will trademark that fancy-dancy description!), where participants spend a weekend in Stockton, Ca. to "share and learn in an open environment" and presumably drink copious amount of fine California wine. Maybe we can do this kind of thing in Canada? How 'bout BeerCamp or HockeyCamp or SnowCamp or MapleSyrupCamp or BlackFlyCamp. Come on, if we really want to get the high-tech community going here in the Great White North, we need to think out of the box - just like those crazy Californians.
Addendum: Just to rub it in, here's Tara's take on the weekend.
