Hello all,

I went to a barcamp in DC on the 2nd. The topic was e-democracy. I really like the barcamp concept, as it is very impromptu and organized in large part by the attendees. If I stay here in Orange County, I am seriously thinking of trying organize a Ruby barcamp. I will seriously need to research it ... and get lots of help. There's not much indication of another meeting of the Orange County Ruby Users Group.

I took some notes on the conference. I know they're not as clear as I'd like, I might clean them up later. I also took some pictures. I've posted both the PDF of my notes and the pictures -- sorry the service isn't the fastest host, but I don't have the time to really design a nice page for this all (that's why I am blogging it). If I can hunt down usable hosting, I might do it up as a real page. But I'd like to put the photos up so that others can tag them (and the PDF too, might as well), I could code that, but for that I'd need more than hosting, I'd need access to install my code on the host. Or I could use another photo-share service that allows for that. I picked the one I did as it had no limits to number of files, and didn't resize the files downward (which flickr did to me for my photos of the Smithsonian Folklife Festival).

Cheers!
