A BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering 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. Learn more or organize your own Barcamp!.

They are organizing a BarCamp near my location in AL, which I find mildly amusing. What I find more amusing is that if you talk to Emmanuel and some of the other people involved in 2600, this has been a core tenent of 2600 from day one as well. I guess it's just so much more l33t when you take the "hacker" out of the meeting.
