Barcamps over the world: BCB3/Minnebar

I think I am kinda special. Not quite like Paris Hilton special, but getting a  chance to attend two Barcamps separated by 8000 miles in a span of 3 weeks has got to be some kind of special stuff. I think the big guy above is smiling at me. Invest in my equity. This is an article outlining some of the interesting differences I saw between the barcamps in Bangalore (BCB3, 31 March -April 1, 2007 ) and Minnesota(Minnebar 2007, 21 April). This is not an article intended to compare or pass a judgement. Just throwing up some observations, fwiw . I am not offering explanations, I am not a socio-anthropology by training.

Minnebar  (pronounced minibar) is in its second edition. It is  a BarCamp organised by enthusiasts in the twin cities of St. Paul/Minneapolis, Minnesota.    You can see the pictures here.   William Gurstelle literally blew us with his presentation on explosive underground technologies: potato guns, pumpkin throwers, tesla coils. He is the author of 5 books on how to increase the entropy of the unverse by factors of 10 or alike.    In some sense, the starCamper, if there be one was David Hans...

Work at a call center

  A nice article on the Jeff Bezos school of management. I am a strong supporter of this ethic. It just makes the world a better place.
