Barcamp Leeds

Today is the first day of Barcamp Leeds 2008. It's a fantastic event. Totally user-generated meaning that you don't know what you'll get till you get there. The sessions are written on a white board in the morning, updated during the day, and the session speakers are the attendees - so it's a total free for all!

Sessions at this year's Barcamp included Cloud Computing, Virals, Web Apps, Debian, 12 Tips for Startups, Design vs Usability etc, etc.

Useful links include:

As you can imagine their's a Twitter page, Facebook page, probably tons of blogs and a load more photos on Flickr.

It's an extremely useful and well-attended event. Tickets (which are free) went in 3 days this year so if you can get one next year, enjoy :-)
