Trying to wrangle venues

Posted by Dan

Wow. I’ve been at this for a couple days and I’ve identified the following places:

* Westwood Club
* 4S Ranch Boys and Girls club
* Rancho Bernardo Recreation Center
* Epicenter (venue)
* Jumping Turtle (venue)
* Technical Training Resources (training facility)

Most of them I’ll need to follow up with because I was unable to actually talk to anybody of any consequence. If you know someone who can help me out with this, Ill buy you a beer :)

There was a lot of talk on irc today about logos and design, but I think we got a couple good ideas pinned down.

If anyone knows a good way to go about contacting sponsors, that also would be most helpful!

AAaaaaaaand, I’ve taken the Old/Temporary wiki page and merged it with the Official wiki page – The one we’ve been editing has a to-do list, and some more granular level tasks. Hopefully it will illuminate to everyone whats been going on behind the scenes since we came on board.

I’ll post more data as it comes in! we’re always around on irc on irc.freenode.net in #barcampsd
Feel free to drop by and say hello!

Barcamp SD Alpha!

Posted by Dan

Hello Everyone!

I’m please to announce that we’ve joined the ranks of organizers for Barcamp San Diego.

We’re thinking about a military theme because, well, lets face it – we’re a military town.

You can find us on irc at irc.freenode.net in #barcampsd

and our wiki page at http://www.barcamp.org/BarcampSD-1

The original wikipage is located at http://www.barcamp.org/BarcampSanDiego – We didn’t want to disturb stuff that was already in progress or stalled.

We’re still doing discovery at the moment, and basically figuring out which way is up.

Big props to the folks from barcampLA who are helping out during our discovery/planning phase!

–Dan
