Photos of UrbanCamp – the venue

August 29, 2009

With many thanks to Donna Benjamin, we’re able to give you a sneak peek of the venue – UrbanCamp, Royal Park, Melbourne. There’s fantastic collaborative spaces in this venue, and it has basic sleeping accommodation.

Call for sponsors

August 3, 2009

BarCampMelbourne is a not for profit event, which the organisers try to make as affordable as possible for attendees, and if possible, free to attend. Of course, this is only possible with the generous help of our sponsors.

So, we’re putting the call out – do you know a company or organisation who could part with some cube goodies, a little bit of hard earned cash, or books etc to use as prizes? Want to know what we can do in return? Check out our Sponsorship page.

Let them know with an awesome flyer – here’s one we prepared earlier! (PDF, 19mb)

New BarCampMelbourne website live!

July 10, 2009

It’s taken a few months in the making, but as you can see the new BarCampMelbourne website is live! It’s based on WordPress MU and BuddyPress, which we’ve chosen to help build connections between BarCampers – so you can get to know each other before BarCamp! The site is brand new, so there’s bound to be some teething problems – if you let us know of any gremlins you find that would be great.

We’re hoping the site will help build the BarCampMelbourne community – so feel free to register, tell us a little bit about yourself and join in the discussions!

Tell us what you’d like to see at BarCampMelbourne2009!
