BarCamp Austin took place last Saturday at the Thistle Café and was going on at the same time as SXSW. It was a great success and the organizers are even talking about doing another one later this year. If that happens, count me in. That would be a great excuse to go back to Austin.
While I was at BarCamp Austin I caught a great Cluetrain Marketing Presentation by Tara Hunt, a Combat Robotics demo by Team XD, a WordPress meetup and an open source panel moderated by Raven Zachary featuring Simon Phipps, William Hurley, Matt Mullenweg, Chris Messina and special guest Doc Searls.
