At the time of writing, BarCamp Malaysia is going on now in KL. It’s a pity I am 8 hours flight away.

So what is a BarCamp you may ask? According to Wikipedia,

BarCamp is an international network of user generated conferences – open, participatory workshop-events, whose content is provided by participants – often focusing on early-stage web applications, and related open source technologies, social protocols, and open data formats.

From my understanding, it is a user-generated conference, requires contributions from the participants to share ideas, knowledge and information. It is also known as an “unconference“.

If you have registered before-hand, have fun, and make sure you blog (or share in any way) whatever you have learned, or found interesting in the event. For those who have not registered, if I am not mistaken, they do allow walk-ins, but not sure about the capacity, go and have a look, who knows :)
