BarCampMiami at FOWA

BarCampMiami came and left us some great memories. David Parmet and Michael Tangeman wrote up summaries; here are my Flickr photos tagged BarCampMiami08 and unbeknownst to me, Michael recorded a video of the introduction to BarCamp:

Thanks in no small part to the Future of Web Apps conference and to the RefreshMiami group, close to 300 people participated in BarCampMiami. Over 35 presentations were given, including a sneak preview of Kevin Marks’ Open Social presentation the next day at FOWA.

We have Nick Dominguez, Michael Montgomery, Chris Saylor, Brian Breslin and dearYvette to thank for helping organize our event. The folks at the Adrienne Arsht Center of the Performing Arts were most helpful by allowing us to stay past closing hours and by lending us extra rooms. A special shout out goes to Mel Kirk and Ryan Carson at Carsonified, who graciously invited BarCampMiami in their venue for FOWA.

Most of all, we have all the participants to thank, who made this such a rich experience. The participants run BarCamp and they made this one great.
