BarCamp 2013 schedule

BarCamp is an annual relaxed, friendly, free, geeky unconference. In Portland the event took place on Friday March 29th & Saturday March 30th in 2013, and on Friday, May 20th & Sturday, May 21st in 2011, and in other years.

According to a woman eating a too-spicy meal and attending her first BarCamp in 2013, the 2013 BarCamp is the 7th in a series. She could not confirm if all seven events took place over a 7 year span. But according to the Melissa Chavez, the communications chair for BarCamp 2013, all seven Portland BarCamps took place over seven consecutive years.

More discussion than can possibly be heard by any one person. Click image to enlarge

At BarCamp 2011, a great session about PortlandWiki was held by our own Matthew Spellman. But as any BarCamp attendee knows, every single session had great conversation and was a learning experience (see picture listing all sessions). Great geeky friendly energy all around. Also delicious food from Nicholas Restaurant, somehow plentiful enough for over a hundred ravenous nerds.
