BarCampMilwaukee3 is over…

We somehow managed to pull it off again, and BarCampMilwaukee3 happened without any unfortuante incidents, even though there was threat of desks being burned to the ground…

In the coming weeks I will try to follow-up on specific things about BarCampMilwaukee3, but for now I will just ramble on aimlessly…

Wifi seemed good and the internet connection worked. This probably sets a new record for Bucketworks.

I did not get to complete my robot, but it looks like Royce Pipkins may be starting up a Milwaukee Robotics Club. (Possibly meeting at Bucketworks.)

We had a desk building competition (sponsored by Bucketworks) and I did not win, despite building two (yes two!) amazing desks…

Blake Hall and I (mostly Blake!) started working on the new BarCampMilwaukee web site & infrastructure. We should be done before BarCampMilwaukee4…

We’ll be discussing what worked/what didn’t and ideas for future *Camps in Milwaukee, including some sort of “FoodCamp” and DrupalCampWI2, and WordCamp, and others I forgot about…

Discussing where? At Web414 on Thursday, October 9th, 2008… 7PM at Bucketworks in Milwaukee, Wisconsin

I’m looking forward to completing my robot as well. I got everything soldered & we tried to program it, but I guess there was a failure somewhere as the programmer didn’t seem to be able to talk to the chip. I’m going to double check my soldering work before the first MKEbots (http://mkebots.org) meeting and hopefully get something up and running.

From my point of view this was an entirely successful barcamp. I didn’t hear many complaints, but I heard some. I’ll hopefully be attending the web414 meeting tomorrow for post barcamp discussion.

Somehow I missed the robot-making. Too many great sessions.

I suppose this will be strong incentive to attend BCMKE4 next year. I’ll have to make a point to block off the robot-building sessions.
