Pack the pack for Bar Camp. Is this the alt-dot for the Alpha Class Foo Camp — Foo a playful and somewhat self-aggrandizing meme translating to Friends of [Tim] O’Reilly.

Bar Camp s an ad-hoc un-conference born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos and interaction from attendees.

The organizers describe the LA Bar Camp, to be held on March 4 and 5 one as a good warm up to O’Reilly ETech. Okay. Good idea. I’ll be presenting at ETEch, so this’ll be a good opportunity to, you know..warm up.
