In 3 short weeks, we've hit our attendance limit for ArbCamp 08. We'll accept an additional 10 beyond SPARK's limit of 100 people for the event, but unfortunately we cannot accomodate everyone - the space simply isn't big enough. We promise to hold another event early next year, perhaps on campus to better accomodate all the students who couldn't make it. Please sign up on the ArbCamp 08 second-wave registration with your e-mail address, and we'll be sure to let you if someone cancels, or when our next event will be - and you're welcome to join us for the after-party, at least...
For those of you that were able to join us, congratulations! We're going to have a great night. Here's what to expect:
Food
Thanks to SPARK
and UM's Center for Entrepreneurship, we will have food and drinks for all attendees starting at 6 PM.
Speed geeking
5 parallel tracks of half-hour blocks (possibly combined to make longer sessions), so anywhere from 15 one hour sessions to 30 half-hour sessions possible. After a round of (extremely short) introductions, participants will propose discussion topics to be laid out on the schedule grid by the group - and then GO! We'll have at least two projector+screen setups for sessions requiring them.
Lightning talks
As many short (1-5 minute) talks to close out the event as we can, before we retire to the...
After-party
More conversation over drinks at a to-be-determined bar, with a first round of drink tickets distributed by our other event sponsors (to be listed) at 11 PM.
Liveblogging
We encourage folks to spread the ideas discussed at ArbCamp to the community through live blogging, video, Twitter, IRC, etc. We'll have an open wifi network available for you to be connected online, as you make connections IRL.
Additional logistics and discussion will happen over the attendee e-mail list we'll set up shortly. See you on Dec 18!
